174 BULLETIX OF WISCONSIN NATURAI. HISTORY SOCIETY. VOL. 2 NO. 3. 
Note on a Bilateral Tulip. 
ROSWELL HILL JOHNSON. 
The tulip here referred to was observed in the greenhouses 
of the Howard Botanical Garden in the early spring of '99. Since 
I find that only one other case of this kind is on record I ventu. e 
to send you this drawing of the perianth-segments, the only record 
I made at the time. Although the four lobed segments are not 
identical, the nature and position of the lobes show apparently a 
fundamental bilaterality.
