Nomenclatural Comment: C. ×matthewsii Carse in T.N.Z.I. 57, 1926, 91 . "I have little doubt that this plant. . . is a hybrid between C. australis and C. pumilio. Some forms are almost enlarged replicas of the latter, while more robust forms have the broad sheathing bases of the leaves as in the former plant." The description covers a number of variants. Original localities, all in Mangonui County: Oinu Bush, Kaitaia, H. B. Matthews.; Otukai and Kopu Okai, near Kaiaka, H. Carse. The Oinu and Otukai collections are represented in Herb. Carse at CANTY.
