very stout, 3 in. Seeds chaff-like, J,— in. diam., testa hyaline with large reticulations. 
— This differs widely from the N.E. Asiatic B. glabra in its much larger size, the | 
flowers being twice as large, and the fruit three times. The capsule of B. glabra 
is not longer than the bracts, and its seeds are ellipsoid, 45; in. long, with a close testa.

Herbs, aquatic or in wet places. Leaves radical rosulate, or capillary 
multifid or obsolete. Scapes l—oo-fld.; bracts small or 0. Flowers her- 
maphrodite, purple, yellow, or white. Calyx inferior, 2-5-lobed. Corollo | 
2-lipped, spurred ; upper lip usually smaller, entire or emarginate, lower 
3-5.lobed. Stamens 2, attached to the base of the corolla, alternate with 
the lobes of the lower lip, filaments broad curved; anther-cells 2. ovate, 
transversely confluent. Ovary superior, globose, 1-celled ; style short, 
stigma unequally 2-lobed; ovules very many, on a free basal placenta, 
anatropal. Capsule globose, 2-4-valved, or irregularly breaking up. Seeds 
numerous, small, exalbuminous.—Species 180, in all climates. 
Calyx deeply 2-lobed, lobes entire or minutely toothed . . 1. UTRICULARIA. 
Calyx 4—5-lobed, more or less 2-lipped . PS 2. PINGUICULA. 
I UTRICULARIA, Linn. 
Herbs, floating or terrestrial. Leaves many-partite with capillary 
segments in the floating species, entire in the erect species; minute bladders 
frequently added. Scapes simple or branched; racemes few- or many- 
fid.; pedicels bracteate and often 2 bracteolate. Calyx 2-partite; lobes 
entire or nearly so, often enlarged in fruit. Corolla 2-hpped; upper lip 
entire or emarginate, lower larger 3-6-lobed; spur curved or straight. 
Filaments broad; anthers ovate, 9. or sub-l.celled. Style short, stigma 
unequally 2-lobed. Seeds ellipsoid or obovoid, scrobiculate or glochidiate, 
rarely reticulate or comose.—Species 150, extending nearly throughout the 
world. 
The numerous small scapose species have evanescent rosulate radical leaves on 
very short creeping branches; but there are specimens from which it would appear 
that, when some of such species grow in running water, they may produce elongate 
branched stems, longer linear leaves, and reduced leaves with bladders. 
* Stems floating, leaves submerged divided into capillary segments 
mostly interspersed with bladders; bracteoles 0.
