 neck, dilating again io as to form a kind of knob, in which 

 the antherae are contained, juft below the limb, which divides 

 into four fomewhat ovate obtule fegments, the upper fide of 

 thefe fegments is of a very pale llefh colour, the under fide 

 of them as well as the dilated part jult below them bright
