Extract

The affinities of the order Lentibulariaceæ having hitherto been somewhat obscure, the author undertook the investigation of the floral organogeny of P. vulgaris, in the hope of being able to throw some light on the subject.

A plant of P. vulgaris, examined during the flowering season, exhibits a short axis with “radical” leaves spreading as a rosette, and terminated by an unstalked umbel of ebracteate flowers.
