is a species yet to be described, but in the absence of fruits a 
complete description cannot be given. It differs from Aitchison's 
undetermined n. 1104, which is a species of § Pterococcus ap- 
parently very near C, Pallasia ; also from Aitchison^s undetermined 
n. 267, which appears to be near C. leucocladum. Nor does it well 
agree with Aitchison’s n. 30 distributed as C. comosum but which 
is certainly not = Griffith's n. 4139 issued as C, comosum and is 
equally certainly not C. comosum itself.
