INDIAIf SPECIES OF UTEICULAEIA.. 17,7 



It may be proper here to state that I do not admit the specific value 

 of Utricularia Bremii (Heer), and doubt further if the U. intermedia of 

 British botanists be distinct, except as a mere form or perhaps variety, 

 from U. minor, L. It is not improbable that the U. sacciformis of 

 Benjamin {Linncsa, xx. 302) may refer to this plant ; I have not, how- 

 ever, seen authentic specimens.
