Respecting Habenaria {Plat.) orhiculata and Hookeri, and 

 also //. {Plat.) dilatata, I have only to remark, that the view 

 suggested several years since, in the third volume of the Annals 

 of the New York Lyceum of Natural History, is proved to be 

 correct. 



Orchis ohsoleta of Willdenow (fide herb. !) is made up of the 

 scape of a Corallorhiza and a leaf of Tipularia ? 



Orchis limodoroides of the same herbarium is Tipularia of 

 Nuttall. To this also belongs '' Orchis floribus sparsis, nectario 

 pedunculum superante, labio infimo lineari," Gronov. ! fl. Virg. 

 p. 137.
