Folia communiter canaliculata vel exceptione rara cavo-teretia, fubambientia, deorfum complicata vel convoluta.

Corolla coriaceo-tenax, poft anthefin per- ftanter connivens.

Capfula in ferrata verticali-oblonga, trigona, cujus diffluit portio fuperna inftar operculi circumciffe difrupta, dum fcinditur paries la- ciniatim et reflexo-revolvens fenfim dimittit femina; ea numerosa, biferialia, fcabrata, nigricanta, libera, receptaculo quoque libero, centrali, triquetro circumsunduntur.

Leaves radical, from half to near a soot long, long-fubulate, smooth, channelled, carinate, traverfed at the bottom of the channel by a filvery waved or. rugofecftripe refembling that in the leaves of Crocus, edged ferrulately by minute diftant cartilaginous prickle-like teeth which point downwards. scapes several in fucceffion, flat, in general shorter than their peduncle, which is solitary, one- flowered, roundish, fiftular, supported by two fmallifh fub- ulate oppofite bracts springing from the joint that unites it to its fcape, and after fructification has taken place are refractedly recumbent.

Flowers ftellate, yellow within, green outwards, fcentless.

Petals linear-oblong, acute, flat, twice longer than the germen, three outer ones broader, longer, fubmucronate, and more deflected.

Parts of fructification far shorter than the corolla, deep yellow, nearly equal; anthers three times longer than the filaments; ftyle round, thickifh, three times shorter than the stigmas, which are cufpidate or fubfagittate, pubefcent, and obconically divergent.
