Excerpt from Hooker's Icones Plantarum, or Figures, With Descriptive Characters and Remarks, of New and Rare Plants, Selected From the Kew Herbarium, Vol. 7: Fourth Series; Part I. 2601-2625, June 1899; Part II. 2626-2650, May 1900; Part III. 2651-2675, August 1900; Part IV. 2676-2700, February 1901 Thunberg says in his Travels l.o These (the lowermost Raggeveld) as well as the others (roggevelds) have been so named from a kind of rye which grows wild here in abundance near the bushes. Curiously enough it has not been collected again since Thunberg's times. Burchell (travels, i. P. 256) says I saw none of the wild rye which has been said to be so abundant as to give the name to this district, but this might be owing to the season of the year. He visited this district in August, when grasses like this would naturally have disappeared. It might be suggested that S. Qfricanum is a variety of S. Cereals, which had been introduced by the farmers and then run wild but rye varies very little altogether, and, so far as I am aware, never in a way which would explain the differences that characterise the new species described above.
