Notes on Cyperaceae of Assam
Abstract
The paper includes, as addition to the Indian flora, Carex eteusinoides Turcz. ex Kunth, Fimbristylis fimbristyloides (F. v. Muell.) Druce and F. yunnanensis Glrake. Six species have been recorded as new to the Assam region. On examination of mature specimens, Carex fuscifructus Clarke has been proved to be a distinct species. Mistakes have been pointed out on the reported occurrence in India of Carex lachenalii Schkuhr, C. prainii Clarke and Juncellus stylosus Clarke. Doubts have been raised on the distinctivity of several taxa, and biosystematic studies have been suggested to solve some of the complexes. A list of twelve species and one variety endemic to the Assam region, and miscellaneous notes on some other taxa have also been included.Downloads
