A linear arrangement of the forms of L. WAiralis is, of course, an impossibility. 

 The preceding diagram (p. 205) expresses their affinities, as I conceive them, and also 

 their distribution *. It will also enable the reader to see at a glance how my views on 

 the possible derivation of these forms differ from those advocated by Prof. Mehelyf.
