The prefent plant, with the two others mentioned in our 

 obfervation above, are too diftincl from thofe plants with which 

 they have been ufually arranged, under the generic title of 

 Anthericum, to be any longer permitted to remain in the 

 fame feclion ; we have accordingly feparated them under the 

 name already adopted by Jussieu, as well as fome of the 

 older Botanifts. 



The reafons alleged by Jacquin for fuppofing Haller's 

 plant to be a different fpecies from this, we think ill founded ; 

 he appears to us to have miftaken differences of terms for dif- 

 ferences of things ; " the petiolated petals" of Haller being 

 no other than the claws or narrowed bafe of the fegments of 

 the corolla ; nor are " the petals of two orders" of the fame 

 any thing more than the inner and outer fegments of the 

 flower. 



A hardy common plant ; native of Algiers, Spain, France, 

 Switzerland, Italy, and Denmark. The variety (a) is hand- 

 fomer than the prefent. Differs from P. Ltliajirum by its 

 ftellately patent corolla, and from ramofum by its fimple 



ftem. G. :■:.:.--
