13. Virescens. — Bulbo viridi, foliis pubescentibus vel 
ciliatis, spatha non colorata, perianthio albescente 
filamentis breviore. Bulb green, leaves pubescent 
or ciliated, spathe not coloured, perianth whitish, 
shorter than the filaments. 
Var. I. Pubescens. — Bot. Reg. 5. 382. Lodd. B. C. 702. 
Leaves broad, hairy, varying in obtuseness ; spathe 
many-leaved, green ; perianth white, shorter than 
the stamina and style. In the Banks. Herb, pu- 
bescens has the leaf acute, albiflos obtuse. My 
plant of pubescens has obtuse leaves. 
Var. 2. Intermedius. — Bot. Mag. 31. 1239. Leaves 
smooth, margin villously ciliated, spathe white 
with green veins ; style more prolonged. 
Var. 3. Albiflos. — Bot. Reg. 12. 984. Jaccp H. Sch. 1. 
31. t. 39. Lodd. B. C. 602. Leaves smooth, 
margin ciliated ; spathe whitish ; style not pro- 
longed. I suspect that these natural varieties will 
be found permanent by seed, and that they are 
distinct in their localities, though properly to be 
united under one head ; but pubescens is not a 
right name to comprehend the three, though very 
fit to designate the one which is downy. Their 
green bulb distinguishes them from all the species 
I know. 
14. Quadrivalvis. — PI. 31. f. 4. Jacq. H. Sch. 1. 30. t. 
58. Bot. Mag. 37. 1523. Leaves narrow, acute, 
spotted (not always) on the base behind, hairy on 
the surface ; scape spotted ; spathe large, bright 
red ; perianth red, very close, tipped with white ; 
stigma trifid. 
15. Rotundifolius. — PI. 31. f. 8. Bot. Mag. 1618. Leaves 
pressed to the ground, large, round, with a rough 
margin ; scape and spathe deep red, 4-valved ; 
perianth pale red with white tips, shorter than 
stamina and style. 
Var. 2. Multivalvis.— Lambertianus. Martins ap. Schultes. 
Callosus. Burchell Cat. et tab. pict. Differs in 
nothing but more valves to the spathe, and a trifling 
variation of the leaf. 
16. Sanguineus. — PI. 31. f. 5. Jacq. 11. Sch. 4. 4. t.
