Specific Char abler and Synonyms. 



GENTIANA adfeendens ; corollis campanulatis quinquefidis 

 inter lacinias dentatis, calycibus latere dehif- 

 centibus fubtridentatis, foliis lanceolatis : radi- 

 calibus elongatis. 



|S. Caule fimplici decumbente. 



The foliage, the form of the corolla, and above all the lin- 

 gular calyx, leave no room to doubt that this is a variety of 

 the one figured No. 705, to which we refer for a more parti- 

 cular account of the fpecies. 



The defcription in the Supplementum Plantarum appears 

 to be from this, and the figures of Pallas and of Gmelin 

 from an intermediate variety. 



Introduced by Mr. Loddiges from Siberia, by whom we 

 were favoured with the plant from which our drawing was 

 made.
