Obs. — A very distinct species. From Junff. capiiata Hook., 

 another paroicous species, it is distinguished by its brown colour, 

 the closely and uniformly imbricated, concave leaves, areolation 

 quite different, guttulate, the lumen small, with remarkably thick 

 walls, bracts and sab-bracts more acutely dentate, perianth cilio- 

 late ; in addition to these characters, the plant has a strong 

 aromatic smell when fresh, and even when dry, which becomes 

 more noticeable by moistening it.
