1. C. suleata (Less. ! Syn. 84, vix DC); branches glabrous, virgate; 
leaves closely imbricated, straight and erect, shortly subulate or semi- 
lanceolate, with strongly revolute margins, 1-furrowed beneath, cilia 
much shorter than the breadth of the leaf ; invol. scales all dry, erect- 
appressed, all minutely ciliato-serrulate. Cullumia adpressifolia, Sond.!

Allied to C. bisulea, but not so branching, with much shorter, very erect, and 
close-lying leaves ; smaller involucres, destitute of pectinate outer scales. Zeyher’s 
plant above quoted is perfectly identical with Thunberg’s. Drege’s, relied on appa- 
rently by De Candolle, is C. bisulea, Less. (Herb, Hk., Sd.) 
2. C, bisulea (Less.! Syn. 82); branches glabrous; leaves crowded, 
subulate, subdecurrent, recurved at the points or squarrose, glabrous 
and nerved above, with revolute margins, generally nerved and bisul- 
cate beneath, cilia numerous, as long as the breadth of the leaf, or 
longer; iny. se. all dry, erect-appressed, the outer pectinato-ciliate, the 
inner ciliato-serrulate or entire. DOC. 1. c. 498. Kohria bisulca, Th.!
