Note * — Chapter XVIII · UTRICULARIA (continued).

Prof. Oliver has figured a plant of Utricularia Jamesoniana (‘Proc. Linn. Soc.’ vol. iv. p. 169) having entire leaves and rhizomes, like those of our present species; but the margins of the terminal halves of some of the leaves are converted into bladders. This fact clearly indicates that the bladders on the rhizomes of the present and following species are modified segments of the leaf; and they are thus brought into accordance with the bladders attached to the divided and floating leaves of the aquatic species.
