Catapodii, F. wnioloides, Kunth, a. Coss. et Dur. inter Catapodia enumerata, ést Demazeria sicula, 
Dumort, a nobis pro genere proprio accepta. Ca£apodium filiforme, Nees, ex India orientali, est 
eadem ae Tripogon bromoides, Nees, characteres veros Tripogonis prebens.

spieulatis, Glumze florentes superne subearinatze mutiem.  Maeula hili (ez Hack.) punctiformis.

laxiuscula, subsecunda, spieulis majusculis. 
Species 1, ins. Juan Fernandez incola. 
Genus Bromo (C Aloe) affine, sed gl forma et venatione distinetum videtur et veri- 
similiter etiam ovario caryopsique glabris. Specimen unicum vidimus staminibus perfectis et 
ovario adhue minimo forteque aborti inaliis pluribus speciminibus a Philippio, Berteroio aliisque 
collectis flores omnes intra glumas a larva quadam comesi omnino destructi, uti jam observavit ipse 
Philippi. 
262. Podophorus, Philippi im Bot. Zeit. 1856, 648.— Spiculee anguste, 1-florz, pani- 
culatz, rhachilla sub flore brevissima articulata pilosa, ultra florem. in stipitem longum 
cum gluma vacua aristiformi t producta, flore h iphrodit Glume. 2 
inf vacus, persistentes, anguste lineares, acute acuminais, sub-3-nerves, parum 
inzquales; florens longior, rigidula, linearis, subteres, ecarinata, tenuiter D-nervis, in 
aristam longam divergentem desinens ; palea parum brevior, angusta, obtusa v. brevissime 
2-dentata, 2-carinata, carinis puberulis. Stamina 3. Ovarium glabrum ; styli breves, 
distincti, stigmatibus tenuiter plumosis. ^ Caryopsis , . .—Gramen (perenne?) laxe 
adscendens, pubescens, habitu fere Bromi.  Panicula laxiuscula, subsecunda, spiculis 
majusculis. 
Species 1, ins. Juan Fernandez incola, 
Genus quoad glumas floresque Festuce potius quam Z/romo affine, ab utroque uti ab omnibus 
affnibus differt flore unico in Spieula, et rhachilla ultra florem longe stipitiformi ut in 
'Qné. 
263. SBromus, Linn. Gen. n. 80.—Spicule cc-flore, varie paniculate, rhachilla supra
