58 Director's Report tor 1917. 
Lagenophora maviensis forma emarginata f. nov. 
This form is generally a smaller plant with shorter scapes of 
3-8 cm. in length. The flowers are often darker colored, and the 
rays are emarginate, usually conspicuously so. The common oc- 
currence of small plants with entire rays, and the rare occurrence 
of large plants with emarginate rays prevent the separation of va- 
rieties. Forma emarginata looks very distinct when growing.
