Zz. pallida has lately been discovered by my father on the Cime d’Ours, 
a mountain close to Mentone, and has also been found in the department 
of the Alpes Maritimes along the chain of Mont Cheiron, by M. Marcilly, 
at about 4000 feet on the north slope in cultivated ground, near the 
Bastide de Gerbiéres at Roquesteron, and the Bastide du Poux, also on 
the southern slope where the road crosses some rough ground between 
Haut Thorenc and Mas, and again on the same slope above Coursegoules. 
M. Marcilly has moreover discovered this species not far from Agay, 
west of Cannes, and M. Ardoino states that it has been gathered near 
Toretta Revest, also called Tourrette, in the valley of the Vesubie, N.E. 
of Mont Chauve; and last spring a specimen was gathered with its root- © 
stock near Sospello, at the entrance of the valley leading to Molinet, by 
M. E. Burnat. 
I possess a specimen collected by Dr. Rostan near Marseilles (Patu- 
rages sous Marseille, No. 29 of his Hasiccata Pedemontana), the north- 
westernmost point of its range, and MM. Huet and Shuttleworth have 
discovered this species in the neighbourhood of Toulon on the Ste. Baume 
and at Collobriéres, and M. Huet has again found it in the wooded dis- 
trict known as Les Maures, near Le Luc, to the east of Toulon, between 
Hyéres and Vidauban. Eastward it recurs in mountain pastures above 
Genoa,* in several parts of Italy, in the Canton Tessin, the Tyrol and 
Carnia, Dalmatia, Greece, and the island of Zante, Croatia, Hungary, and 
Transylvania (Nyman). 
I have also seen specimens in M. Boissier’s herbarium, from Alma 
Dagh, or Mount Amanus on the northern frontier of Aleppo, gathered by 
Balansa, and from near Madrid, gathered by M. Reuter.

Note.—The plants figured fairly represent the average form of the perianth in the 
numerous specimens which I have received from the arrondissement of Grasse, and 
from the Cime d’Ours, near Mentone, but the lip is sometimes much shorter in 
proportion to the tube, being for example, but 4 of the tube in a specimen from near 
Sospello, and but } in one from Southern Italy.
