indefatigable observer, M. Marschall of Bieberstein; who 
remarks that fimbriatum is less common than wnbellatum in 
those parts. 
ORNITHOGALUM montanum of the Flora Napolitana of 
Tenore (1. 176. ¢. 33.), comes very near to fimbriatum, but 
there is no mention of any fur belonging to any part of that 
plant. Zzxscapum of the same author is also a very near 
species. 
The segments of the corolla in this section of OrnirHoGa- 
LUM are so deeply divided, as to appear so many petals, and 
though they are really connected, they seem as if attached 
frontwise and separately to the receptacle of the germen. 
The three outer segments are slightly protuberant at the out- 
side of the base, and appear as if pouched.
