M. mantellii, Buchanan; Trans. N.Z. Inst., HI., p. 212. 
This plant appears to be a hybrid between M. ternata and M. simplex ; 
it is usually found in situations where both species occur, and presents the 
characters of both in varying degrees: on the whole the foliage approaches 
more closely to M. ternata ; the inflorescence to M. simplex. 
North Island— Auckland ; Thames Goldfield; common about Wellington.

Whole plant of a peculiar bronzed hue, stems from a few inches to
