Ob coronam duplicem forsan haud sit hujus generis; sine dubio

XXY. 0. Hagstrom: Potamogetonaceae asiaticae. 



(Nach: Bot. Not., 1905, pp. 141 — 142.) 



1. Potamogeton pectinatus L. var. coronatus Hagstrom, 1. c, p. 141. 

 Caulis laxus filiformis internodiis subelongatis (5 — 10 cm). Folia 



linearia angustissima, caulinia et inferiora ramorum mucronata. Spica 

 saepius multiverticillata (vertic. 5—8, vulgo 5 — 6). Fructus parvus. 

 3X2 mm, dorso rotundato. 



"Muntjokk-ott 23 juni Mapiek-koll" (leg. Sven Hedin). 



Fruiting specimen; only its upper part preserved. Stem slender. 

 thin (1 mm in diam.), branched, internodes 5 — 10 cm. Leaves narrow 

 (1 mm: on the branches l /a mm only), acute; stemleaves and lower branch- 

 leaves cuspidate. Sheaths with membranaceous border. Stipules half as 

 long as the sheaths. Peduncles 5 — 10 cm in length. Spikes of 5 — 8 

 (usually 5—6) sections. Fruit small, 3X2 mm, back rounded (dry with 

 a low keel on the back below). 



The anatomy of the stem like that of the European forms: endodermis- 

 cells strongly onesided thickened, spread bastbundles (11 observed in a 

 transverse section at the middle of the stem) in one circle in the bark, 

 central cylindre compressed (transv. sect. oval). The small drupelets make 

 this form easily recognizable. 



2. Pot. filiformis Pers. var. Tibetanus Hagstr., 1. c, p. 142. 



Folia linearia (1 mm lata) aequali fere latitudine usque ad apiceni, 

 apice breviter rotundato vel saepe triangulari. Vaginae longae (25 — 30 mm). 

 "Ofre Kum-koll. N. Tibet" (leg. Sven Hedin). 

 Only 3 individuals collected of which 2 steril and one flowering, no fruit.
