 3 : 30 (1845), not Habenaria longifolia Lindl., Gen. & Sp. Orch.

"107. P. longifolia Nob. Fol. lanceolatis angustis; flor. viridi- 

 bus: labello lineari, calcare inflato." Rich. & Gal. loc. cit. 



The type specimen of Platanthera longifolia is very unsatis- 

 factory. The lowermost leaf is about 14.5 cm. long, linear, acute. 

 The uppermost leaf is about 9.5 cm. long. The flowers are very 

 difficult to observe, and, unfortunately, few. INIeasurements of the 

 floral segments are as follows : dorsal sepal 5 mm. long ; lateral 

 sepals 7 mm. long; petals 5 mm. long, acute. Measurements of 

 the lip and spur can only be made from moistened material.

1 This collection remains unique to this day. At Paris there is a single individual 2.5 dm. 

 high, without roots ; and a good drawing by Richard. No species known to me approaches 

 it closely, although the individual flowers resemble those of H. spaisiflora. (A. A. E.)
