216 158. CYPERACEE. 
Frequent in India ; extending to Malaya and Queensland. 
This plant, from its red colour, is much mixed in the old 
herbaria with C. puncticulatus, Vahl, which never has a trifid 
style, and is a true Pycreus. 
Hance described his C. amoyensis from his Amoy plant, 
Hance 1392. Subsequently Hance put his n. 1392 on a plant 
which he received from India, which is not at all the same. 
Hance’s numbers refer to his numbered list—not to his 
collections.
