This account of P. cheilanthifolia is based on the examination of 34 specimens. The
intimate relationship of the species to P. globifera has been already noticed. In
Stoliczka's specimens from Kibler, in Hay's from Lahnl, and ia Heydc's from Pangi
the inflorescence is centrifugal ; in several other gatherings it is subcentrifugal, i.e., the
flowers in the lower verticil, removed by an interval from the spike proper, open later
than those flowers of the verticils next above whicii form the base of the congested part
of tiie spike.

This account of P. ophiocephala is based on an examination of 17 specimeus. The
species is very closely related to P. HOÌJICÌ, to which it bears exactly the relationship that
