vided for the transfer of this species to Cyathocoma Nees as C. bachma
nnii (Kukenthal) C. Archer, which is redescribed and illustrated. A re
circumscription of the southern African endemic genus Cyathocoma and a
key to its three species is included. The taxon is better known under
its later name Macrochaetium Steud.
