ORCHIDACEiE 



specifically or even varietally distinct from one another is very H.Jiava 

 doubtful. The specimens in the Linnaean and Gronovian herbaria 

 are comparable to the specimens with elongated racemes fre- 

 quently found in the South and Southwest. The specimen in 

 Lindley's herbarium at Kew which represents Platanthera her- 

 biola Lindl. is comparable to the form with congested racemes 

 not uncommon in the New England states. The erect horn on 

 the labellum of this species is very characteristic.
