Related to the next species, M. Henrici , very much as M. racemosa is related 
to M. horridula ; perhaps, therefore, M. Henrici may ultimately have to be merged 
in this species. The specimens as yet reported appear, however, to have only 
4 petals ; those of M. Henrici almost all have more than 4 ; it is therefore, for 
the present, convenient to keep the two apart. Not yet introduced to European 
gardens. Apparently monocarpic.

Sometimes quite glabrous, at other times sparingly strigose, and then very 
like M. primulina , or more or less beset with simple setae and then like M. lancifolia ; 
occasionally densely clothed with rigid setae and rather like M. horridula : the setae, 
however, are not pungent. The occurrence of a second flower below the terminal 
flower of a scape is not infrequent; this circumstance strengthens the suspicion 
that M. lancifolia may be no more than an unusual state of a species of which 
M. Henrici is the usual form. The synonym M. principis used for the species 
in 1905 (Flora and Sylva, iii. 84) is the manuscript name originally employed 
by the late Mr. Franchet for the specimens subsequently described as M. Henrici . 
This has recently been introduced into European gardens, and promises to be 
a pleasing addition to horticulture. Apparently monocarpic. 
10 . Meconopsis primulina, Prain. Folia caulibusque parce strigosa 
lanceolata margine integra ; flores in scapis pseudoradicalibus singuli ; 
petala 6-8 ; capsula (matura ignota) anguste oblonga, glabra, vertice prope 
basin styli papillis obtusis induta ; stigma 2-lobum. Prain, Journ. As. Soc.

Very nearly allied to M . Henrici , and differs from that species only in having 
a distinctly 2-lobed stigma and in possessing two pairs of epaulette-like papillae 
suggestive of a rudimentary partial disk. Possibly the communication of larger 
suites of specimens may render it necessary to unite this plant to M. Henrici and 
to reduce both to M . lancifolia . In any case these three forms must be considered 
representative forms in three adjacent geographical areas. This form has not 
yet been introduced to European gardens. Apparently monocarpic.
