21 in. long, and is the plant recorded in the present list as 
C. alopecuroides, D. Don, var. chlorostachya, C. B. Clarke. 
C. japonica, Thunb., as understood here, differs from C. alo- 
pecuroides, D. Don, by its smaller size and shorter spikes : 
moreover the under surface of the leaves is glabrate, not glaucous 
by reason of a dense covering of capitate white glands; the leaf- 
sheaths are not fimbriate; there is very often a leaf, or empty 
bract, added about the middle of the stem.
