Blume suggests that Thisniia (his geuus Sarcosiphon) may be the type of a new order 

 of Rhizanths. He describes it as a leafless parasite, growing on the roots of trees, 

 resembling in appearance an Angiogastrous Fungus, and smelling like stinking 

 fish. Miers refers this genus to Triurids (see p. 17'2).
