Introduction
Delpino has given in the Gionale Botanica Italiano (vol. VIII., 1876 p. 140) & in his Ult. Osservazioni a fa much full more complete ch but therefore somewhat complex classification of the various forms of flowers than that has followed; but it is a consequence somewhat too complex for my purpose.
