W. A. An extreemely variable species the classification 

 of which is very diff icult on account of the numerous transi- 

 tional forms. Three varieties can be distinguíshed : 



a) var. typica (= P. media s. sp.). 



Slab Hut Creek to Qranbrook, Bridgetown to Kojonup 

 and Slab Hut Gully, A. A. Dorrien-Smith. 



b) var. brevifolia (Lindl. sp.). 



c) var. juncifolia (Lindl. sp.) Benth. 



Except for the outer bracts this variety is similar to 

 P. longifolia while the variety brevifolia represents the extrém 

 in the opposite direction.
