| Iris maritima Lam., Tabl. Encycl. 3: 497 (1823), nom. illeg. name had already been used for an Iris sibirica|
| Dykes (1914) provided the following notes; “Standards, slightly shorter than the falls, oblanceolate-unguiculate, of a deep violet-blue clor, slightly edge with yellow in the lower part. Falls. The lanceolate haft is separated by a distinct constriction from the almost orbicular blade, which is about half as long as the haft. At the base the color is due to red purple veins on a white ground; on the blade these veins become a deep blue purple, and the groundwork is of a paler shade of the same color. The central ridge is greenish yellow with faint purple dots.” Stem is sheathed in 3-4 reduced leaves which entirely hide the internodes. [Iris spuria L.  subspecies maritima Lam.]. |
| Iris spuria var. maritima Dykes, Gen. Iris: 59 (1913).<br /> *Rootstock* , a somewhat slender, hard rhizome, which remains clothed with the bases of old leaves, which, however, do not split readily into fibres. *Leaves* , upright, stiff, ribbed, dark-green, subglaucescent, linear-ensiform, tapering gradually to an acute point, ¼-i in. by 1 2 in. at flowering time, but growing longer subsequently. *Stem* , about 10-12 in., round, sheathed in 3 or 4 reduced leaves, which entirely hide the internodes and bearing a terminal head of two flowers and sometimes one or two lateral spicate heads, each of a single flower. *Spathe valves* , firm, green, somewhat inflated, over, the outer valve alone being slightly keeled. *Pedicel*, about 1 in. in length. lanceolate, remaining green long after the flowers are ½ in. by 2½ in. *Ovary* , ½-¾ in. long, with 6 ribs arranged in 3 pairs, and a tapering neck, which is similarly ribbed. *Tube* , broad, under ½ in. long. *Falls.* The lanceolate haft is separated by a distinct constriction from the almost orbicular blade, which is about half as long as the haft. At the base the colour is due to red purple veins on a white ground ; on the blade these veins become a deep blue purple, and the ground-work is of a slightly paler shade of the same colour. The central ridge is greenish yellow with faint purple dots. *Standards* , slightly shorter than the falls, oblanceolate-unguiculate, of a deep violet-blue colour, slightly edged with yellow in the lower part. *Styles* , narrow oblong. *Crests* , small, triangular or subquadrate. *Stigma* , bifid, with two distinct points. *Filaments* , broad, dark purple. *Anthers* , purple, edged with yellow. *Pollen* , orange. *Capsule* , oblong, beaked, with a double ridge at each angle, 1-2 in. long. *Seeds* , brown, smooth, ~more or less cubical, enveloped in a loose, dark, papery covering.|
