fpf. Cape des Narcisses with C. lutetiana l. with
which cph asates with C. l.-9 8-2-33 Villeneuve-Arment
(See also desc.) C. alpina l. 8-27-31.) Plants 13-25 cm
high with different look than C. l.-due to: glabrous
or reddish at nodes, less glabrous (as desc S VI), thin-

or rather less. Petals plainly "en coin" as cph with
the rounded base of C. l.-Ovary less nearly
spherical than in C. l.-and the neck (under
opened fl) is rather more than 1/2 as long as ovary
(i.e. neck is 1 mm long as in C. l.)-ovary less than
2 mm (in C. a 9 8-27 this neck practically nil)
Disk less pronounced than in C. l.-Stigma
distinctly 3-lobed. Very young fs. def 2-cells with
ovule in each cell. Plants erect from the ascending
ends of horizontal root stalks [?] about the same thickness
as st. From this underground root stalks issue very
slender pinkish runners with distant paired
of opp. scales. St. glabrous below the ± gland-fest.
