I. Sari, var. lurida, Boiss. Fl. Orient, vol. v. p. 131. This curious new Iris belongs to the small section Oncocyclus, and is closely allied to the well-known I. susiana (Bot. Mag., tab. 91). Our drawing was made from a specimen sent by Mr. R. I. Lynch, of the Cambridge Botanic Garden, with whom it flowered last May. We have also had it this summer in the herbaceous ground at Kew, received from Professor Foster. The species was originally described in my synopsis of the genus Iris, published in the " Gardener's Chronicle" in the year 1876 (vol. v. p. 788), from material furnished by Max Leichtlin.
