 C. paueiflora. 



Base of Morven, F. J. Hanbury ! 



There are no specimens of C. paueiflora in Dick's herbarium now ; but I 

 am certain that I once saw them there ; and Mr. Nicolson agrees that 

 they were marked " Dunnet Links." There is another sheet bearing 

 the same London Catalogue number as C. paueiflora ; but it contains 

 C. paniculata. It seems curious that O. paueiflora should be almost 

 the only sedge wanting in Dick's bundle of Cyperaceoe, which is un- 

 usually complete, although containing few specimens marked " Caith- 

 ness." — Grant.
