AMARYLLIDACEjE. 
fancied to be the N. minor of Linnseus's herbarium. 
Mr. Haworth adds two other varieties; one with 
leaves still more erect, another with leaves nar- 
rower. It is quite immaterial what variety Lin- 
naeus may have placed in his herbarium as identical 
with minor. The name belongs to the plant he 
first distinctly described, whatever confusion he 
may have afterwards made in this as in many other 
cases, either not observing the difference, or not 
thinking it worthy of notice. 
Var. 5 ? Nanus. Haw . — Only known to me by his de- 
scription ; probably a variety of minor, since Ha- 
worth first called it minor ft. conspicuus. N. Rev. 
p. 112. Sulphureous, semipatent, limb half as long 
again as the cup, which is yellow, lobed, and cre- 
nate. He notices a narrow-leaved variety with 
limb quite patent, and a double variety. I possess 
a bulb of Haworth's nanus, but have not yet seen 
its flower. 
Var. 6. Pumilus. — PI. 39. f. 23. Salisbury. Spec. Van 
Royen. Herb. Banks, from the Leyden Garden. A 
very diminutive variety of minor. 
2. Pseudonarcissus. — Cup the length of the limb. Linn. 
Scape two-edged, striated, much more hollow than 
that of minor ; style ^ to about § of an inch shorter 
than the cup ; filaments adnate close to the base of 
the tube ; tube about f long, sometimes § ; sepals 
varying in width from |- to -|ths ; cup sometimes 
with six lobes cleft almost regularly, sometimes 
with none ; more reflex, when cleft; about If long; 
limb paler yellow than the cup. — Filaments adnate 
near the base of the tube, with a marked inequality. 
See PI. 38. f. 40. 
Var. 1. Ryticarpus. — Haw. capsulis rugosis. That 
which grows wild in the parish of Spofforth, in 
Yorkshire, and the neighbourhood, has the germen 
very wrinkled as soon as the flower begins to fade, 
and is probably the variety thus named. 
Var. 2? Festalis. — PI. 43. f. 3. Salisbury. The speci- 
men in the Banks, herb, to which Mr. Salisbury 
has affixed his name festalis is a plant of small size, 
seemingly intermediate between minor and Pseu-
