The varieties Honduras, Carolina Gold, 

 and Carolina White belong in this group. 

 Some of the more important subdivi- 

 sions and varieties are here given, fol- 

 lowing the classification of Koernicke, 

 as in the other cereals, although with 

 the small extent of material yet avail- 

 able any classification must be regarded 

 as tentative. The very few varieties 

 mentioned are nearly all foreign, and 

 are given simply as examples of the 

 groups. It is Oryza communis, Kcke.
