Nota. Differt ab 0. amethystea Thuill. squamis, bracteis et sepalis brevioribus, corolla extus 

 copiosius glanduloso-pilosa, staminibus altius insertis. Propter stigma luteum cum 0. amethysteae 

 varietate attica (Reuter) consociata est; an hujus varietas? Ab 0. Picridis Schultz, cui proxima, 

 corolla porrecta subgenuflexa, labio supero bilobo, stigmate luteo, sepalis brevioribus, antheris 

 sensim acuminatis distinguitur.
