 distinctis stigmatibus rainutis desinentibus, etc. ; a Veratro 

 (cui species racemis compositis magis accedunt), floribus om- 

 nibus hermaphroditis, staminibus stylisque longioribus, semini- 

 bus vix alatis, et habit u.

 folia, Mich.r.) a nomine Cyanotis Don vix differt ; Cbrosperma 

 specei unicae solum apta est ; ideo utrumque prseteritur.
