Obs. This species is certainly very distinct from N. rosea Salzm. 

 and N. tuberosa Linn, its greatest affinity is with N. multibractcata 

 Desf. I am however inclined with Desfontaines himself to consider it 

 as distinct. It differs from that species in its general habit, in its 

 long thin spike, in the form of its bractese, and in the sharp pointed 

 and almost pungent teeth of its calyx. In the plant collected by 

 Desfontaines the verlicillaslres are brought together, into a long cy- 

 lindrical spike, whilst in that of Broussonet, which does not appear to 

 differ otherwise, they are very remote. Its bractese , which are not 

 scarious, but have the consistance of leaves, vary as to coloration.
