PATAGONIAN EXPEDITIONS: BOTANY. 



The Hatcherian specimens from Coy Inlet determined by Macloskie as 

 y. depauperatus, actually belong to J. Scheuchzerioides Gaud. 



JUNCUS DOMBEYANUS Gay. Macl., p. 299. 



Scarcely in S. Patagonia ; according to Spegazzini in N. Patagonia by 

 Rio Carren-leofu. 



J. GRAMINIFOLIUS E. Mey. Macl., p. 299. 

 Should be eliminated, being identical with J. cyperoides. 

 Add Macl., p. 299: 



J. IMBRICATUS Lathorp var. CHAMISSONIS (Kunth). Buchenau. 

 Described, p. 298, as J. chamissonis. 

 N. Patagonia, near Carmen da Patagones. 



J. INCONSPICUUS d'Urv., Pflanzenreich June., p. 169. 

 Syn. y. Scheuchzerioides Gaud. var. inconspicuus (d'Urv.) Hook. fil. (in 



Macl., p. 301). 



Falkland Ids.; E. Fuegia: Coy Inlet, Patagon. 



We observe that Skottsberg in his description of the Vegetation of 

 the Falkland Islands "a Botanical Survey of the Falkland Is.," p. 19, 

 expresses the opinion, that the specimen now being considered, which 

 was found by him in the Falklands, is not an independent species, but 

 only a reduced form of y. Scheuchzeriodes Gaud., agreeing with the 

 variety inconspicuus (d'Urv.) Gaud, of that species. (See above under 

 y. depauperatus Phil.) The distribution of this variety is, according to 

 Skottsberg; Falkland, Fuegia, S. Georgia, Campbell I. 



J. LESEURII Bol. Macl., p. 299. 

 Also in NW. Patagonia, Rio Manso ; W. Patagonia, Rio Aysen. 



J. MARITIMUS Lam. Macl., p. 299. 



According to Buchenau, in Pflanzenreich, June., p. 154, this species, 

 S. American, extends south into Argentina, and it would therefore not be 

 surprising if it should be met with also in the neighboring parts of Pata- 

 gonia. Any other statement of its occurrence there than Macloskie's on 

 page 299, I have not seen ; the specimens referred to by Macloskie were 

 collected by Hatcher, no doubt in S. Patagonia. I have not seen them
