 with 1 to 3 pairs of lobes, the segments all attenuate to sharp tips ; calyx 25-30 mm. long, cleft 

 medianly one-half to two-thirds its length, laterally 7-10 mm. into linear-attenuate lobes ; 

 corolla 30-40 mm. long, exceeding calyx and bract in anthesis, its galea 20-25 mm. long, attenuate, 

 pubescent dorsally, with wide reddish thin margins, its lower lip 2 mm. long, dark green, pro-
