C.  Oederi  Retz.,  var.  oedocarpa  And.  Perigynia  less  inflated 
than  usual,  giving  it  a  look  of  C.  lepidocarpa  Tausch  ;  but 
it  is  not  that — E.S.M.  Correct,  I  believe _ A.B.  (2)  Wet

Yes;  C.  ampullacea  Good.,  var.  brunnescens  And _ E.S.M. 
Andersson  described  this  under  C.  ampullacea  Good.  In  the 
“Nya  botaniska  notiser,”  1849,  he  gave  a  long  paper  dealing 
with  the  modifications  of  G.  vesicaria  and  C.  ampullacea. 
Under  G.  ampullacea ,  var.  brunnescens  he  says,  “the  halm 
seldom  exceeding  2  feet  in  height  is  quite  obtuse,  clothed 
below  with  conspicuous  reddish  scales,  the  leaves  lighter  than 
usual  and  shorter,  male  spikes  always  two.”  Mr.  Ewing’s 
specimens,  though  not  exactly  answering,  must,  I  suppose, 
be  so  named,  but  the  authority  under  G.  inflata  is  “E.  S. 
Marshall.”  —  A.B.  C.  rostrata  Stokes,  var.  brunnescens

Right,  I  believe ;  some  of  the  stigmas  have  fallen  off  my 
specimen,  so  that  their  number  is  not  ascertainable _
