This species is closely allied to C. brunnea, Thunb., as stated 
by Franchet in Bull. Soc. Philom., where it is placed at the head 
of the section “spicule apice mascule.” The terminal spike is 
male at top, usually for the greater part of its length, and 
frequently male altogether. 
But, in Henry 5971, which Franchet worked from in Nouv. 
Arch. Mus., there are about 4 of the female spikes in which the 
lower female flowers have not perfected utricles (as not in- 
frequently in this section); Franchet has taken these as male 
flowers apparently (7. e. I find no males) and has created a new 
section for this species only, having * spicule inferne masculi, 
vel interrupte mascule et feminew,” the character of the section 
Remote, from which C. stipitinuz is alien.
