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



Distr. Tropical Asia, Australia, and Africa.

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



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

 900 m., Kerr, 1691.

 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.
