496. Achyrophonis Adans. 

 As Hypochoeris. 



1628. A. maculatus Scop. (= Hypochoeris maculata Z.). — Linnaeus says 

 that the heads of this species open at 6 a.m. at Upsala, and close between 

 4 and 5 p.m. ; according to Kerner, they open between 7 and 8 a.m. at 

 Innsbruck, closing again about 6 or 7 p.m. 



Visitors. — Loew (Berlin Botanic Garden) observed the bee Osmia fulviventris 

 Pz. 5, po-cltg. 



1629. A. uniflonis F. W. Schmidt (= Hypochoeris helvetica Wul/., and 

 Hypochoeris uniflora VilL). — In this species, according to Hermann Miiller 

 (' Alpenblumen,' p. 468), the stylar branches bend gradually so far outwards 

 and backwards that the stigmatic papillae on their inner surfaces come into 

 contact with any pollen that may have remained among the sweeping-hairs, so 

 that in the absence of insect visitors automatic self-pollination may be effected.
