 usque ad spithamam longa. Forma^ hujus speciei spiculis seeus 

 ramos panicula} longiuscule spicato-distributis occurrunt, et affini- 

 tatem cum A. pertuso patefaciunt, quamvis ambi in prodromo 

 Brownii sub generibus diversis locati. Nullas differeutias detexi, 

 quibus exemplaria ex Himalaia, Ccylon et China distinguenda 

 esseut ab Australianis. E Khasia possideo varietatem caule in- 

 ferne decumbente, panicula contracta, bracteis longioribus et 

 acutioribus.
