99. C. rotundata. Wahl. 



Hab. Slave Lake. Fort Enterprize. Br Richardson. {Herb. Banks). —'Y\\q leaves of this species are 

 involute, and on comparing the specimens with one from Wahlenberg, I can see no difference. The pre- 

 ceding (C. membranacea) is closely allied to this, but the leaves are flat, and the spikes are longer.
