 itfelf annually by a lateral (hoot juft below the top. Of

 — Gathered by Mr. Menzies, on the fouth-weft coall of 

 New Holland. We do not difcovcr it amongll the fpeci- 

 mens with which he has favoured us ; nor did Mr. Brown 

 gather this fpecies liimfelf. 



15. U. albylora. Small White-flowered Bladderwort.

orbicular. Stalk fimple, angular, with a few raceniofe 

 flowers. Spur awl-fliaped, acute, as long as the lips- 

 Calyx-leaves permanent, ver)' unequal ; the upper one orbi- 

 cular, eijiarginate, ftriated — Brought from Sierra Leone,

 dery. Stali near three inches liigh, flender, fmooth, bearing

 nating in a clujler of three or four purplifli ^/yoTOfrj, on ca- 

 pillary ftalks, whofe lower Up feems cloven. The mem- 

 branous capftile is accompanied by the likewife membranous, 

 pale, permanent, fpreading calyx, whofe lower leaf is fmall 

 andobti.fe; the upper five times as large, orbicular, with

18. \J.cyanea. Sky-blue Bladderwort. Brown n. 15 



" Stalk fimple, ftraight, with a few lateral remote flowers ; 

 partial ftalks with three brafteas. Calyx acute, about 

 equal to the corolla. I.,ips entire. Spur conical-awl-

19. \3 . graminifoUa. Grafl!"y Bladderwort. Vahl n. 3. 

 Brown n. 16. (U. cserulea ; Herb. Linn, but not Sp. PI. 

 U. uliginofa ; Vahl n. 25?) — Stalk fimple, angular, dif- 

 tantly racemol'e ; partial ftalks with three brafteas. Calyx 

 acute. Upper lip of the corolla emarginate ; lower fome- 

 what three-lobed. Spur defcending, conical. Capfule 

 comprefTed. Leaves linear-elongated. — Native of the dried 

 margins of ponds, in the Eaft Indies. We have fpecimeni 

 froni Dr. Buchanan, gathered in the Myforc country. Sir 

 .Tofeph Banks found this fpecies in the tropical part of New 

 Holland. Linna:u.s confounded ii with iiis origiral ctrulea, 

 defcnbed in our 4th feft'on, n. 47, but the prefent plant is 

 furniflitd with one or more grafl'y, acute, feffile, radical 

 leaves, half as tall as the ftaik, deti ifted by profeffor Valil 

 and Mr. Brown. The commnw Jlo'wer-Jlall: is rather ilout, 

 from three to fix inches high, not braiicncd, but fometimes, 

 as in feveral other fpecies, elongated by a lateral ftioot, 

 either in confequence of its having flowered before, or having 

 been broken off. Clujler wavy, lax, of three or four blue 



Jloivers, whofe partial Jlalhs fpread horizontally as they ripen 

 feed. Calyx permanent, its leaves ovate, acute, membranous, 

 ftriated, clofely embracing the capfule ; one of them emar- 

 ginate. One of Koenig's original fjiecimens of his U. uli- 

 ginofa, now before us, is fo imperfett, that we labour under 

 the fame difliculty as Mr. Brown, in deciding whether it 

 belongs to this or the laft fpecies.

 Sp. PI. 26. Willd. n. 8. Vahl n. 24. — Stalk fimple or 

 divided, racemofe. Brafleas folitary. Calyx acute. Upper 

 lip of the corolla ovate, undivided ; lowi r cloven. Spur 

 defcending, conical, acute, the length of the upper lip. 

 Leaves linear, ftalked. — Gathered by Oft)eck, near the wa- 

 tering-place on the Danifli ifland, oft' Canton, in fwampy 

 ground, but not under water, flowering in Oclobcr. It 

 has fdfo been found in Ceylon, from whence we have fpcci- 

 niens, one of which is accompanied with leaves, hitherto un- 

 noticed by any botanift. The very Ipeciniens delineated in 

 Ofbeck's voyage, arc preferved in the Liniia-an herbarium. 

 This fpecies is certainly allied to the laft, but rather 

 fmaller, with yellow Jloivers. The Jlalk i.s fometimes di- 

 vided, or interrupted, as in that. Leaves very fmall, narrow 

 and oblufe, fpringing from the fibroui roots^ or rather from 



fin.iJl
