This species, abundant in India, extends through Malaya to 
New Guinea. It differs little from S. scrobiculata but by the 
conspicuously 3-winged sheaths to the leaves. Henry’s n. 608 
may be ealled var. decolorans, C. B. Clarke (in Hook. f. Fl. Brit. 
Ind. vi. p. 690); while Hance n. 12962 has the middle stem- 
leaves approximated in twos or threes, and may therefore be 
named S. scrobiculata by some.
