Cyperus caespitosus Llanos Frag. fPl. Philip (1851) 14 (caespitorus}'^
F.-Vill. & Naves in Blanco Fl, -Filip, ed. 3, 4 * (1880) 8, non Poir.=
- CYPERUS HASPAN Linn.
Llanos did not intend this as â new species, but thought that
Jns .plant was the same as Cyperus caespitosus Poir. of Mada-
gascar, as described by Sprengel Syst. 1: 221. Naves er-
roneously reduced it to Cyperus dehiscens Kunth, a species
that does not extend to the Philippines. From the imperfect:,
description and the indicated habitat the form that Llanos de-
scribed can be nothing else than Cyperus haspanhmn.
