OF THE CAMEROONS MOUNTAINS, ETC. 225 
smaller some states of C. bulbosus ; but the acute glumes distinguish 
it from both. The small, white, smooth, triquetrous achenium is 
very characteristic of the Cape and Cameroons Mountains plants. 
3. Cyperus ADoENnsIs, Hochst.; A. Rich. Fl. Abyss. ii. 484. 
Hab. Fernando Po, alt. 8500 feet. (Fl. April.) 
The scales, described by A. Richard as being rarely mueronate in 
the Abyssinian plant, are always so in the Fernando Po specimens. 
4. KYLLINGIA MACROCEPHALA, A. Rich. Fl. Abyss. ii. 490, 
Hab. Fernando Po, alt. 7000-8500 feet. Cameroons Mountains, alt. 
/000 feet. (Fl. Nov.-April.) 
Identical with the Abyssinian plant. 
5. IsoLEPIS CAPILLARIS, Rem. & Sch.; Kunth, Enum. i. 211. I. 
trifida, Nees; Kunth, Enum. ii. 213. 
Hab. Fernando Po, alt. 8500-10,700 feet. Cameroons Mountains, alt. 
6000-10,000 feet. (Fl. Nov.-April.) 
A common tropical plant, found at various elevations, in Ame- 
rica, Africa, and India, but not in South or North Africa. The 
I. tenerrima, Fisch., of South Russia is the same plant, I think. 
6. IsoLEPIS SCH«ENOIDES, Kunth, Enum. 11.209.  Schoenus erraticus, 
H.f. (ante, vi. 22). 
Hab. Fernando Po, alt. 8500-9000 feet. Cameroons Mountains, alt. 
7000-9000 feet. (Fl. Nov.-April.) 
This appears to me to be much nearer allied to Schenus than to 
Isolepis. It is a native of mountain marshes in the eastern parts 
of the Cape Colony. 
7. CAREX cRUCIATA *, Nees?; Boott, Illustr. Carex, t. 319, Foliis 
firmis. 
Hab. St. Thomas's, summit of the Peak, alt. 7500 feet. 
The original C. cruciata is a native of the Himalaya and Khasya 
ranges. 
. 8. Carex WAHLENBERGIANA, Boott, Illustr. Carex, t. 301 (ante, 
^ vi. 92). 
Hab. Fernando Po, alt. 8000 feet. (Fl. Dec.) 
A.native of Bourbon, the Mauritius, and mountains of Abyssinia, 
at an elevation of 9000-10,000 feet. 
9. CAREX Boryana, Schk. (ante, vi. 22). 
Hab. Fernando Po, alt. 7500-8500 feet. (Fl. Dec.) 
A native of Bourbon and the Mauritius. 
* The Carices have all been named by the late Dr. Boott, F.L.S.
