Tbis plant is abundant at the above-named localities, so 

 that it is surprising that it has not been previously collected. 

 As yet, however, it is very imperfectly identified. On sending 

 specimens to Professor Agardh he returned them as G. 

 distich". Major Eeinbold, however, regards the plant as 

 possibly G. secundata. There is no question but that 

 Professor Agardh was wrong in identifying it as G. disticha.
