Several species of Anthiiriiwi much resemble each other, and 
are often confounded if their characters are not carefully con- 
sidered. The present species is very likely to be misunderstood, 
but if the differences pointed out be attended to they will well 
distinguish the species. It is nearly stemless, and produces 
many lanceolate bright green leaves. I obtained my original 
plant from Mons. L. Van Houtte, of Ghent.— PF. W. S.
