Chiengmai, Doi Sootep, in deciduous jungle, 510 m., Kerr, 1219a; 

 in open marsh, 660 m., Kerr, 2648. 



Distr. Tropical Asia, Australia, and Africa. 



A specimen from Doi Sootep, in eng jungle, 450 m., Kerr, 1219 

 is almost certainly a very young example of this species. 



Scleria elata, Thwaites—F.B.I., vi. p. 690. 



Chiengmai, Doi Sootep, in mixed and evergreen jungles, 600- 

 900 m., Kerr, 1691. 



Distr. India, Ceylon, China, Indo-China, Malaya. 



The nuts of Kerr, 1691 have more prominent beaks than those of 

 the type but otherwise the plants are similar. 



A specimen collected on Doi Sootep, growing in tufts, deciduous 

 jungle, 330-540 m., Kerr, 1269 is probably a young example of this 

 species.

A specimen of tufted growth, collected in a young state on Doi
