 acuta, riorum glomeruli in omnibus asillis, manifeste petiolares 

 6 — 12 flori, pedunculo ab ima basi bifido. Flores omnes herraa- 

 phroditi, dimorphi aliis majoribus aliis minoribus, sepalis cucul-

 subglobosæ, stigmata 2 filiformia brevia. Ovula seraper horizontalia,

This species is allied to S. (Belotcia) paradoxa Bunge, (of 



which I have seen the original specimen), but the ramification is 



ver}- different, S. paradoxa bearing the branches on the superior 



part of the stem. Also the leaves and the inflorescense differs 



from that of S. paradoxa, which is a big and erect plant, while 



S. Olufsenii is little and prostrate. I have named this species after 



Lieutenant 0. Olufsen, the head of the expedition.
