Limodorum tuberosum L. Meadowbrook. 



Leaf 30 cm. x 3*4 cm. Flowers subtended by very conspic- 

 uous bracts of the following lengths starting with the lowest. 

 5 cm., 4^4 cm., 8>2 cm., 9 cm., 6 cm., 5^ cm., 3 cm. Seven 

 bracts in all and 1 to 3 m.m. wide. Raceme 15 cm. long. 

 Rev. Dr. H. M. Denslow kindly compared this plant with sixty- 

 nine sheets in Herbarium of N. Y. Botanical Garden, localities 

 extending from Newfoundland to Alabama. A few of the more 

 southern plants had leaves approaching the above in size but 

 none as large. All had the very small bracts characteristic of the 

 species. Have seen but a single plant and the question is 

 whether it is a new species or an abnormal form of Limodorum 

 tuberosum.
