B. reflexa Brid. {B. recurvifolia Sell.) is a variety or subspecies of the last,distinguished by its reddish brown colors, strongly squarrose - recurxeti lowerleaves, broader, shorter and abruptly pointed. Not common. B. gracilis (Schleich.) Schwaegr. is a very rare species somewhat resemblingsmall forms of S. fallax but the leaves are shorter, straighter and more dioicous, densely tufted, 1-2^^ hgh, olive-green; leaves ovate-lanceolate;costa excurrent in the upper leaves, forming the greater part of the leaf apex;leaf-cells rounded, nearly or quite PLATE XXIX.
