on the Genus Juncus of Linneus: 325 
This is unquestionably a good species, and the: Rev. Hugh 
Davies's remarks leave me nothing to add to the diagnostie:de- 
scription. “The panicle of this is more branched than that of 
the last, the branches more slender and spreading, the divisions 
of the calyx narrower and longer, the capsule smaller, much more 
taper-pointed and lighter-coloured ; culm of fewer joints, that 
and the leaves less compressed. It is a taller plant, sometimes 
above three feet high, and it ripens later." I cannot persuade 
myself that Ray did not intend this species and not obtusiflorus by 
his J. nemorosus folio articuloso ; since in his Hist. Plant. he quotes 
Ger. 20. 10. (a most excellent p of the obtusi Morin) 
with a doubt. |
