from S. Chile, with smaller, more reniform leaves with crenate margins, 
relatively large elliptic-obtuse crenately lobed appendages, and white 
flowers; C. obtusa , Chessm., from the high mountains of New Zealand 
(see p. 411), and C. novae-zelandiae , Hook. f. This last in leaf-form 
is very similar to C. sagittata , and in some specimens the portion of the 
auricle bent up is quite small, but in its flowers, with their five long 
linear-lanceolate perianth-segments and the few spreading carpels, it 
differs very markedly from C. sagittata , with its crowded head of erect 
carpels and ovate perianth-segments. Gay (FI. Chil., i, p. 50) believes 
that C. sagittata , Cav., is confined to the Magellanic region, and suggests 
that Poeppigs C. sagittata is really his Psychrophila andicola ; but he 
does not reduce it. Alboff, l.c,, also tries to confuse these two species. 
Hooker in FI. Antarct, ii, p. 228, refers to 
‘ a small state gathered by Mr. Bridges in 
Chile s , which again is C. andicola .

According to Hooker the flowers in this species are dioecious, but 
from the herbarium specimens it is not possible to confirm or refute 
this statement, though the flowers show both carpels and stamens 
which appear to be normally developed. The specimens at Kew from
