ANDROPOGON. 85 
It must be examined again, I have clearly ascertained that 
the outer palea should be the inner, and vice versa.

This plant must still be retained in Andropogon I would limit 
Holcus to such as have panicled inflorescence, the spiculæ 
being reduced to the terminal ones. It differs from Andropo- 
gon however as Mr. Brown long ago pointed out sub Holco, 
Pr. Fl. Nov. Holl. 55 Ed Nees, in theawnless flowers; Mr. 
Brown likewise says that the Perianths are bivalved from 
the abortion of the inner valve of the upper, or hermaphrodite 
fower?. But I have invariably found in both spiculz an outer 
neuter flower consisting of a two veined valve, nor do I see 
that there is any thing extraordinary in the situation of the 
Lodiculz. 
Itis probable that two species have been confounded: the 
present or rather the Suddyah plant has the outer palea of the 
hermaphrodite flower bifid and a short, arista or mucro with a 
pubescent apex arising from the sinus.
