almost as long as ovary. Spur flattened and often broadened at tip. Note that petals often curve inwardward at tip under the cangne of the sepals. (See 4-13-34 for desc of spec sent from Italy.) 5-5-34 Orelis nicarnata l.Cote III 404, (Bon) BUT 461, BUT III II = 348 = O. inearatus L. SYK/160. Fl. (12 spec only hardly more than bud.) Villeneuve mark. (See 6-28-33). Tube small (15x10 mm) and divided only in teeth at end, the other tube normal size, deeply divided in 4 division, spreading as well Cote. St 14cm to tip of infl. St with 2 breathing scales, then if 2cm long; if 7.5 cm long; if 9.5 cm long; if 9.5 cm long; if 5 cm long. Thereafter fl reaches to middle of infl, the next lower fl reaches to tip of infl, thereas have about as high as the next flower (4th from top) reaches to base of infl. (As cap the lower ones) are beaded & punctulate. The 3 longest brs are 16-18 mm at base (i.e. lowest point at which they can be measured without detach- ing from st.) the widen almost imperceptibly (about 2mm) but at front about the middle are again same width as as base & from there diminish lanceolatelly. All Cote good this brs are not as long, in proportion to width. Infl 4cm high compact. Lower bracts 1.5-2cm long/somewhat longer than fl.) hieraccea, violet tinged, Fl small. 12mm from lip of spur to tip of petals. 15 mm from tip of sepals (spread, slater back to back) to tip of lip. Spur 5-6 mm, thickly cylindrical, pointed downward, lying along the ovary.
