obtuseque calearatus. Ovarium ovoideum, 1 mm. longum; stylus glaber, 75 mm. 
longus. 
Camps VI a, VII, and VIII, 3100 to 4900 fü 
Leaves usually drying a golden-brown; petioles 1-3 mm. long, hairy. Stamens shortly 
exserted ; filaments broad and flat, 4 mm, long; cells of anther a little more than 
1 mm. long. 
This has the foliage almost exactly of R. latior, Nees, except for the cystoliths which 
are very conspicuous and constitute a marked feature of the species. The flowers of the 
two are, however, very unlike. 
Referred to this species are specimens collected at Camps VI 6 and VII to IX, with 
somewhat narrower leaves usually 2-4 cm. long by 8-15 mm. wide, drying green, and 
bracts with a somewhat narrower colourless border. There seems no reason to give a 
varietal name to this form.
