    Cyperus rotundus L.

CYPERUS ROTUNDUS Linn.; Blanco FI. Filip. (1837) 81; ed. 2 (1845)
21; ed. 3, 1 (1877) 40.
Cyperus curvatus Llanos Frag. PL Filip. (1851) 15; F.-Vill. & Naves in

DUS Linn.
Blanco certainly described a form of the Linnean species,
probably var. nüagiricus (Höchst.) C. B. Clarke. In this reduc-
tion of Llanos’s species I follow F.-Villar, for I can see no reason,
|rom Llanos’s description, to consider Cyperus curvatus Llanos
other than this very common form. Cyperus rotundus is abun-
dant in all parts of the Philippines in the settled areas.
