the corolla. Tube of the calyx 9-11 inches long, the ap- 
pendages of the upper margin or lip but little shorter, reach- 
ing to the top of the vexillum. Before expansion the calyx 
is quite closed, its mouth being then contracted and the 
appendages twisted around each other; afterwards the tube 
splits all along the inferior side nearly to the base, and the 
appendages are bent backwards, still remaining flexuose. 
Petals all perfectly glabrous and free, most likely red ; vexil- 
lum somewhat pointed, attenuated into a short broad unguis ; 
alee and carinal petals oblong or semi-obovate, rounded at the 
end. Five of the stamens longer; anthers all linear-oblong 
and fertile; 9 filaments free for about 3 of their length, the 
tenth for about 2.
