elongato-linearia rosulata acuminata trinervia, basi membranaceo-vaginantia,

autem foliis conformia. Flores in cincinnos simplices dispositi. Calyx 
evenius clavatus, fructifer paullum ampliatus basi rotundatus, crispato- 
pubescens, striis furcatis superne bifureatim conjunctis, dentibus ovatis 
obtusis late scarioso-marginatis. Petala alba, unguibus inclusis superne 
utrinque auriculato-dilatatis, lamina anguste oblonga, lobis oblongis, appen- 
dicibus binis ovatis obtusis. Genitalia inclusa. Capsula oblonga, fere
