glume of a pinkish tint. The specimens now obtained from near 
Meiktila are much finer and more robust than those upon which 
the genus was founded. A new species of the genus Entero- 
pogon, or a marked variety of E. melicoides, Nees, previously 
only known from South India and Ceylon, was collected at 
Meiktila. From the same region, too, there is a remarkable 
variety of Eragrostis viscosa, Trin., also a South-Indian grass; 
or it may deserve to rank as an independent species. An elegant 
variety of Sporobolus coromandelianus, Kunth, completes the list 
of specially interesting grasses.
