Supplementary remarks:
"No. 7. does not appear to be typical of either S. fluitans or S. lenticularis, and might rightly be regarded as a new species S. Carsei. However with the material at my disposal I would not care to express a definite opinion".
R.H. Anderson B.Sc., National Herbarium, Sydney, 8th May 1925
Supplementary remarks:
Perhaps all these small forms really belong to a distinct species which is as yet undescribed.
