cund leaves, which are not appressed to the stem, and are some- 
what obtusely lobed ; the involucre is larger, and shorter in pro- 
portion to its size; its leaves are connate only at the base, and have 
their obtusely lobed apex subincurved or straight, the outer ones 
much larger and convolute ; perianth much shorter than the in- 
volucre, and connate only at its base ; capsule smaller in propor- 
tion, ete.

X. Oakesi appears to be very closely allied to S. wndulata, Var. 
purpurea ; but is readily distinguished by the large spur-like teeth, 
on the carina of the uppermost leaves. :
