9-8-34 prostrate and forming a mat-like effect.
Sts red. Infl short while effect very delapidated
and unlike the erect P.P. in better soil.
Cfl with P. lopatifolium. Note that, besides the
differences visually noticed: shape of brs, ciliation
and balance of gland, 2 characteristics mentioning
Sv% I are very useful.
1. The ventral frd of P.P. is depressed on one
side only and ± rounded on the other [In Plap-
fe is depressed on both sides.
2. Nerves periantb of P.P. are obscure (even 20x)
& seem to run parallel to the edge [In P. lap- the
nerves are very distinct (20x) and branched like
anchors near the edge.

Branches of infl incurved.

But examination shows spikelet 3 mm long (in
