Abstract: Let $G$ be the symplectic group, $Phi=C_n$ its root system, $BsubsetG$ its standard Borel subgroup, $W$ the Weyl group of $Phi$. To each involution $sigmainW$ one can assign the $B$-orbit $Omeg{a}_{sigma}$ contained in the dual space of the Lie algebra of the unipotent radical of $B$. We prove that $Omeg{a}_{sigma}$ is contained in the Zariski closure of $Omeg{a}_{au}$ if and only of $sigmaleqau$ with respect to the Bruhat--Chevalley order. We also prove that $dimOmeg{a}_{sigma}$ is equal to $l(sigma)$, the length of $sigma$ in $W$.
