anthers large, 10-12; style longer than filaments ; 
stigma triangular, almost 3-lobed. Flowers sweet. 
4. Villosa. — PI. 25. fig. 7. Specim. Masson. Herb. 
Banks. Papiria villosa. Thunberg. act. 1. 2. 111. 
Bulb ovate, small, with a cylindrical neck ; leaves 
very villous and narrow ; tube slender, near 3 inches 
long ; limb white, about filaments and anthers

5. Verticillata. — PI. 25. fig. 6. Specim. Masson Herb.

parvulo ovato, foliis quinque filiformibus ; fructu 
ovali unciali ; scapo unciali. Bulb small, oblong, 
ovate ; leaves five, like threads, 4 inches long ; 
fruit an inch long on a scape an inch long. I know 
nothing of its flower. 
6. Undulata. — PI. 25. fig. 5. Specim. Masson Herb. 
Banks, absque flore. Bulbo oblongo ovato, lj unc. 
lato, collo foliis sub terra vaginantibus producto 
5-unciali ; foliis 20, 7-uncialibus, erectis, undula- 
tissimis, setose ciliatis. This singular plant, with 
leaves undulated extremely and in a most remark- 
able manner, and ciliated with strong bristles, is 
only known by Masson’s specimen, with no account

the largest known species.

small, ovate ; leaves smooth, of the length of the 
flower. On the hills near Buffalo river and else-

have not been able to obtain a sight of Thunberg’s 
figure. 
8 ? Rosea. — Ecklon topogr. verz. 4. Flowers rose-co- 
loured ; of smaller stature than the rest. At the 
foot of Bavian’s-berg, near Gnadenthal. I know 
nothing further of this plant.
