the difficulty, perhaps, may be explained ; since the synonyms of 
Bauhin are all applicable to the latter species, and the figures of 
Gerard, C. Bauhin, Parkinson, and Johnson are not to be de- 
. pended on, seeing that they represent the male spike of a Carer 
terminating the panicle, and that Gerard's is the only original 
figure among them, the rest being merely copied from him. Vail- 
lant (Botan. Paris. 109, 110.) has arranged the syrionyms of the old 
authors, as far as relates to J. squarrosus and bulbosus Linn. in a 
more satisfactory manner than any person I have consulted.
