C. SALINA, Wahlb., var. ? N. Harris, W. S. Duncan, sp., August 

 1895. Mr. Duncan has just lately (26th August 1895) sent me 

 a turf with living specimens of this interesting Carex. It corre- 

 sponds with nothing I have under the species for Asia, America, 

 or Europe, and ex descrip. seems to come between C. flavicans, 

 Nyl., and C. spiculosa, Fr., but wanting the rough apex to the 

 glumes of the latter. I have not been able yet to see authentic 

 specimens of the " species " Nylander describes in his works on 

 the Flora Fennica, but hope to.
