Stems 2-3 ft., naked extremities 4-8 in., sometimes branched. Leaves $-1 in. 
Flowers 3. in., arising from a small globose tuft of rigid bracts; sepals obtuse.— 
Griffith’s D. micranthum is unquestionably D. Serra: the specimen he figures has lost 
all of the naked end of the branch but the lowest node.

Stems 1-3 ft., with long naked extremities. Leaves 11-2 iu. Flowers } in. 
long, yellowish white; bracts minute; pedicel as long as the flower.—Roxburgh 
states this to have been sent to the Calcutta Garden from Amboyna, but the 
Khasia plant so perfectly agrees with his description and figure, that I suspect some 
mistake. Lindley, who had not seen Roxburgh’s drawing, nor the then unpublished 
3rd vol. of the FI. Ind., doubtfully refers D. acinaciforme to Serra.
