Description

S. olbia Verguin,

Bull. Soc. Bot. Fr. 54: 599 (1908) (S. gregaria Godfery),

which occurs on maritime sands and lake-margins

in S. E. France (Var),

is probably a hybrid between 4 and 5. It has 3-4 tubers, 1 sessile, the others on stolons, a short, 2- to 6- flowered, pale violet to purple, dark-veined spike, with bracts equalling or slightly exceeding the flowers. The outer perianth-segments are as in 5 but are pale violet to purple, while the labellum is as in 5 except that it is about twice as long as the other segments and has a hairy, dull red to purple epichile.
