C. Papyrus, Pers.; Papyrus antiquorum, Spr. The Papyrus, Papperu 

 in Sicilian, has long been naturalized, and flourishes on the banks 

 of the rivulet which rises in the clear fountain of Cyane, now 

 Ciane or La Pisma, and joins the Anapus near where it flows into 

 the Porto Grande, to the S.W. of Syracuse ; I have not seen it 

 growing naturally in any other spot in Sicily.
