In addition to the colour of the fringe on the margin of the lower pale: tin spicule 

 of this species is distinguished from that of the preceding by the absence of a I rminal 

 imperfect flower. In habit it appears to be a much more slender plant, with a much !<- 

 compound panicle. There are, unfortunately, no leaves actually attached to ain of the 



flowering specimens; so that I have been unable to describe the foliage with an; 



certainty.
