 perianth i-f in. lobes of outer subequal as long as the tube ligulate.

Bulb small. Leaves 4-6 in., subfleshy, filiform, semiterete, deeply grooved 

 above. Scape 6-9 in., terete; raceme 6-12-fld. ; pedicels -| in., longer or shorter 

 than the lanceolate bracts. Perianth white or greenish, f in., tubular-campanulate, 

 lobes glandular at the tips. Capsule stipitate, ^ in. diam. Seeds ellipsoid, ^ in.

2. D. minor, Hook.f. ; racemes many-fld., bracts much shorter than 

 the pedicels, perianth ^i in. lobes of outer as long as the tube. 



The CONCAN; rocky places in Mahvan, Dalzell. 



The- specimens are very indifferent and leafless; but the small size of the 

 flowers at once distinguishes the species. 



3. D. concanense, Dalzell in Hook. Lond. Journ. Bot. ii. 142 ; raceme 

 few-fld., bracts triangular acuminate shorter than the pedicels, perianth 

 la in. 'long, lobes much shorter than the tube subequal, outer ligulate.

 all glandular and papillose at the tip. Capsule stipitate, didyinous, in. diam. 

 Seeds % in. long, oblong.

4. D. serotinum, Medic, in Act. Palatin. vi. 431 ; leaves 6-18 in., 

 scape 10-14 in., raceme elongate many-fld., bracts lanceolate about 

 equalling the pedicels or longer, perianth f in. long brown, lobes sub-

Bulb ovoid. Leaves 6-12 by ^-5 in., acuminate. Raceme 4-6 in. ; bracts 

 about as long as the white or very pale pink flowers. Flowers -f in. long, outer 

 lobes of perianth revolute, inner erect with spreading tips. Capsule very 

 variable, g f in. diam., quadrate. In a drawing from Herb. Falconer it appears 

 that in this plant the flowers are very pale brown. In Wight's figure of Urg. 

 coromandeliana t the flowers are those of an Urginea, but the foliage, capsule, &c., of 

 D. serotinum.
