1664. TypHa LATIFouIA L. var. MEDIA Syme. Mr. ing makes 
this var. ambigua Sonder, an older name. He also angusti- 
olia x latifolia. Have we, then, two different ikteiipedinte 
plants? It is not un likely for set reeds Syme is said to be

1728. ERIOCAULON SEPTANGULARE With. Mr. Clarke fortunately 
ascertained that this dates from Withering’s first edition ae 
two years earlier than Nasmythia articulata of Hudson, ed. 
Withering’s name therefore stands.
