276 Mr. Haworth's Additions to and Amendments 



plants; so that the motto of the Monograph remains in force, — 

 " Multum adhiic restat, multumque restabit." 

 At the end I have added, by way of postscript, a few other 

 amendments and observations on kindred bulbous plants; and 

 remain, Gentlemen, yours. &c. 



A. H. Haworth. 



Observationes quaedam ad Narcissineas spectantes. 



Ohs. In the generic character oi Co7-bularia the seeds 

 are quadrifariously, rather than bifariously inserted as 

 stated in Narcis. Monog. cd. 2.; but I have not yet 

 been able to examine more than one species. 



Obs. To Corbularia Bidbocodium add, as synonynia, 

 Lob. Ic. 119. 2.— Bank. Hist. 2. 559./ 2. 



Obs. To Corbularia lobulata add : Narcissus te?iuir 

 /alius Redout. Lill. 486. 



Obs. To Corbularia serotina add, Affinium Folia, 

 longiora et duplo validiora, decumbenti-humifusa, 

 valde flexuosa, vel quasi serpentina. Ex eodem bulbo 

 scapi subinde tres, si optime culto. — Query : Is Nar- 

 cissus infundihdum of Lamarck a species of Corbu- 

 laria. 



Obs. In the genus Ajax the seeds are from 2- to 4- 

 fariously inserted. 



Obs. Ajax minor of Narc. Monog. is N. mi7ior Re- 

 dout. Lill. t. 480. 

 maximus. Ajax. (The largest yellow): Obs. — i^oZ/a latiora qu am 

 in A. majore, minus torta. Corollce laciniae magis ex- 

 pansae, sen fere horizontales. Corona praegrandis pa- 

 tens, lobis longe indistinctioribus vel potius plicatim 

 multi- et magni-serratis, serrisque ad oras reflexis. 

 Flos paullo saturatior flavus, fere 3 uncias longus, et 4 

 unc. latus. In A. majore, corolla; laciniae semierectae, 

 lobis subrecurvis. Flos S\ unc. lat., 2| long. 

 anceps. A. (light green-leaved): corollas laciniis albis, corona 

 laete lutea, foliis loratis obtusis latiusculis laete viridi- 

 bus, scapo compresso ancipiti. 



Ajax lorifolius /3. Narcis. Monog. ed. 2. p. 8. 

 Florebat in horto amici Dom. Sweet, Aprili mense 

 A.D. 1832, post A.lorifolium Nob. Distinguitur optime 

 ab affinibus proximis, laste viridibus foliis, florum albis 

 laciniis, scapoque valde compresso. Ante Ajacem bico- 

 lo7-em certe locarem, propter albas lacinias, tempusque 

 florendi ; sed satis ab eo in foliis angustioribus et non 

 glaucis diflbrt.
