A small tree from 5-8 feet in height. Branchlets are from 4-4^ 

 in., and branches slender. The sheath-teeth vary from six to seven 

 in number.

 -diameter, and 1-in. long. The valves do not protrude beyond the 

 surface, which is nearly smooth, and quite glabrous. 



The seeds are small and red. TheV are much more pointed than 

 'those of C. humilis, and smaller.

 -are about twice as long, though with shorter internodes and smaller 



diameter; they are also less angular than C. humilis. The colour 

 ■ of the branchlets is more greenish than grey. 



(2) Fruits. — The cones are shorter and less rugose, the valves and 

 markings are more regularly arranged, and the valves do not open 

 as widely. The seeds are small, red and pointed, while those of 

 'C. humilis are larger, black and blunt.
