the sea. The Kaiaka form, also identified by Klikenthal, is barely, if at 

 all, distingiiisbable from the very plentiful var. Banhsii C. B. Clarke ; 

 perhaps the leaves are slightly broader. 



33. Carex testacea Sol. 



In a small wood at Taiiroa I gathered a form of this with culms 

 7-11 ft. ! ! in length — much longer than I have ever seen before. 



34. Carex lucida Boott. 



A form elongating in fruit to more than 8 ft. is not uncommon on the 

 coast near Ahipara. 



35. Carex comans Berggr. forma subsessilis Kiikenth. form. nov. 



" Spiculis inferioribus breviter pedunculatis." (Kiikenthal in litt., 1913.) 

 Ahipara ; not common. 



36. Carex pumila Thunb. var. macrocarpa Carse var. nov. 



C typo similis sed in omnibus partibus major. Foliae 5-8 dm. longae. 

 Culmus 3^ dm. altus. Spieulae 25-35 mm. longae. Utriculus longior et 

 latior. 



A much larger plant than the type, with culms 8-15 in. long ; leaves 

 equalling typical form in breadth, but much longer, 20-30 in. The spike- 

 lets are 1-1 i- in. long, and broader in proportion. The utricles are slightly 

 longer and a good deal broader. 



In damp hollows, among sand-dunes, Tauroa (Reef Point).

Near Kaitaia ; rare. H. B. Matthews ! 



41. Hymenophyllum Cheesemanii Bak. 



In hilly forests ; not uncommon. 



42. Trichomanes reniforme Forst.
