108 85. CYPERACE/E. 



Agrarian region. Midagrarian zone. 



Descends : — ■ Ascends : — Little above the coast level. 



Range of mean annual temperature about 48. 



Native. Uliginal ? A somewhat uncertain species, 

 found near York and in Ireland, and so far differing both 

 from C. teretiuscula and from C. paniculata that botanists 

 cannot satisfactorily refer it to either, although in some 

 degree an intermediate plant.

Native. Paludal, Uliginal. A specimen is in my her- 

 barium, labelled from Sutherland, but no collector's or 

 contributor's name with it, and I am unable to recollect 

 how it was acquired. On this account, Sutherland is 

 marked inquiringly. As it occurs in Ross (Rev. G. Gor- 

 don) and Orkney (Mr. J. T. Syme), the county of Suther- 

 land seems likely also to produce it. Can any botanist 

 report a locality for this Carex in the Lake province ? It 

 would seem a very likely species to grow in that province, 

 although I am not aware of any actual record of its oc- 

 currence there.
