Caulis reptans filiformis ad nodos remotos radicans. Rami breves 
adscendentes foliosi. Folia connata ovato-spathulata subpetiolata 
carnosula interdum irregulariter crenulata utrinque minute papillosa. 
Flores solitarii ex axillis foliorum superiorum pedicellati, pedicellis 
filiformibus, tetrameri petalis quam sepala parum longioribus. Sepala 
oblongo-obovata obtusa basi connata extus minute papillosa. Petala 
ovata apice minutissime cucullata alba. Stamina quam petala breviora 
filamentis subulatis antheris ovatis. Carpidia staminibus subaequi- 
longis ovariis oblique ovatis 6 — 8-ovulatis, stilis ovariis subaequilongis 
subulatis. Squamae albae obcuneatae apice dilatatae et rotundatae. 
A creeping plant only found on high mountains in muddy places, 
rooting at the nodes and sending up short 
branches with somewhat crowded leaves. 
Creeping stem (which in its end portions 
bears the flowers) 7—12 cm. long, internodes 
5 — 9 mm., ascending branches about 1 cm. 
long. Leaves 3 — 3'5 mm. long. Pedicels about 11 mm. long. Petals 
about 2 mm. long.

rocky places on the Sneeuwbergen, about 4000 ft, Bolus, 2061 ; 
Majuba Nek, Herschel distr., Dec. 1915, Hepburn, 105; on mud on 
the top of the Andriesberg, 6700 ft, E. E. Galpin, 1922 (except the 
specimens collected in April, 1895, which belong to Cr. Vaillantii 
(Willd.), Schonl.) 
The description was drawn up from fresh specimens sent by 
Mr Hepburn. In Galpin’s specimens the lateral branches are more 
elongate, and also bear flowers, and this seems to be also the case in 
the other specimens quoted.
