Its long vagine, and the fruit being not inflated but filled with the 
large feed, diftinguifh it from vefcaria and ampullacea. It agrees 
in many particulars with /y/vatica and firigofa, but differs in having ` 
more than, one male iplis as well as much thicker and denfer fe- 
male ones. - 
_ I know of no figure of this fpecies; nor of C. dinervis; but as I hope 
to procure frefh fpecimens for publication in Engli/fh Botany, I de- 
cline offering any delineation of dried ones. A figure of a Carex, in 
order to be ufeful, fhould exhibit the frutification in various ftates, 
and exprefs particularly the form, furface, and nerves of the arillus, 
and the PPM of the feed. ;
