Endemic. The plant from Albemarle Island differs from the original 
material from James Island in not rooting at the lower nodes. Further- 
more, the outer bract of the involucre is broadly obovate and subtruncate 
instead of acuminate as described by Hooker. Mr. W. B. Hemsley has 
been so kind as to compare the Albemarle plant with some of the 
original material at Kew and regards them as the same species. A 
fragment of the Darwin plant, sent many years ago by Mr, Bentham to 
Dr. Gray, is unfortunately sterile, but agrees closely with the Albemarle 
plant in all vegetative features except in its evident repent character.
