 Mr. Ridley ( Jom-n. Linn. Soc. Bot. xxii. 269) cites " [A.] Pichard, 

 Mem. Mus. Par. iv. 52 " (1818) for the name L. liliifolia, but no 

 s])ecies are named on that page : on p. 60, under j\L Loeselii, Richard 

 cites as a synonym "J/, lilifolia q^ ic. Andr. Reposit. t. 65," and adds 

 *' vix differt." The name, as stated in Index Keicensis, originated 

 with Lindley in his arrangement of Liparis in Bot. lie^. t. 882 

 (1825); he quotes it as of Richard, but, as already shown, Richard 

 did not name the plant.

 The name Loeselii commemorates Johannes Loeselius (1607-55) 

 professor at Konigsberg, whose ligure and description (t. 58, p. 180) 

 in his posthumous Flora Prussica (1708) edited by Johann Gottsched 

 are the only ones cited by Linnteus when establishing the sjjecies.
