 5-25 mm. longis integris vel breviter ac remote paucidentatis,

Murteree, Strzelecki Creek (S. A. White, September, 

 1916). Recorded in these Trans, xli., 648, as a form of C.

 in tufts on the flooded ground 4 or 5 inches high.'' Our two 

 specimens do not show the base of the plant, which differs 

 from C. multicaulis and C. porphyroglossa in the narrower 

 leaves and chiefly in the ripe achene, which is glabrous except 

 for the short ciliation of the wings ; the wings much broadened
