Haylockia (Matthew Haylock, gardener to Dean Wm. Herbert, the latter authority on amaryllids). Amaryllidaceae. A small bulb, not unlike a crocus in habit, blooming in spring; allied to Zephyranthes.

South American: Ivs. linear, all radical: scape very short bearing a solitary fl., with a slender tube 1-1 ½ in. long and a limb of about equal length; stamens affixed in the throat and shorter than the lobes; ovary 3-celled, with the filiform style included in the perianth-tube and the stigmas short-linear. H. pusilla, Herb., the only species, is likely to appear in the American trade. The fl. has a greenish tube, the limb whitish or straw- colored and stained outside with purple, apparently somewhat variable in color (sometimes pale rose): bulb globose, with brown appressed scales: lvs. appearing after the fls., the latter coming in England in July to Sept. and ephemeral. Extra-trop. S. Amer., in the region of Montevideo and Buenos Ayres. B.R. 1371. B.M. 7693. From Zephyranthes it differs in the very short or almost wanting scape, the ovary being practically in the bulb-neck. L. H. B.
