MONOCOTYLES. 



m 



Thus I have given here 10 sp. of Iris, either new or quite 

 rare ; this account doubles our knowledge of this Genus, of 

 which we have now about 20 sp. I possess nearly all the 

 others Iris cristata, verna, virginica (these 3 often blended 

 like the 3 next) versicolor, prismatica, gracilis, hexagona,. 

 missurica, sibirica, tenax figured by Hooker 3343 and Lind- 

 ley 1218. These two last are from Origon. I shall perhaps- 

 resume a monograph of this pretty genus. 



APPENDIX. 



My Genus DiPLosTELMA 316 which Nuttal had wrongly 

 reduced to Mctinocarpus in Colhns herb, (there is no such 

 genus, he meant probably Actinospermum o'l EAVioX) lias been 

 described by him under the name Chetanthera in his new 

 plants 78, without any reference to former name! whence it 

 escaped my notice ; but he has onl)^ one sp. Ch. asteroides (a 

 bad name) which is my Dip!, piimila, the rays are violet and 

 the blossoms are veraal. I have added 2 other sp. and my 

 name is the best, although Nuttal's dates of 1834, Chetanthe- 

 ra means bristly anthers, while this is not the case, he ought 

 to have named it Chetopappu^, but as the pappus is double and 

 different mine is the best and must be retained.
