  The 
  original 
  i\r. 
  aqucdica 
  of 
  Linnaeus 
  contained 
  also 
  N. 
  unijlora, 
  but 
  

   that 
  occupies 
  a 
  subordinate 
  place 
  in 
  his 
  description. 
  It 
  seems 
  proper, 
  in 
  

   breaking 
  up 
  the 
  original 
  Linnsean 
  description 
  to 
  retain 
  his 
  name 
  for 
  that 
  

   species 
  which 
  was 
  evidently 
  most 
  prominent 
  in 
  his 
  mind.
