Rhizome slender, similar to that of I. iberica: lvs. 6-8 in. long, glaucous, very narrow and somewhat falcate: st. 2-4 in. high, bearing 2-3 reduced lvs.: spathe 1-fld., 2 ¼ in. long; valves narrow, inflated, green: outer segms. lanceolate, pointed, horizontally extended, not recurved, creamy or grayish white, marked with conspicuous, irregular, jagged, purple-brown veins, with a purplish black patch at the throat; beard of stout yellow hairs tipped with brown; inner segms. ovate- lanceolate colored like the outer and marked with jagged brown-purple veins which become more broken on the claw; style-branches almost uniform chocolate- brown. Mountains of Persia and Transcaucasia. R.H. 1901, p. 399. Gn. 70, p. 15. G.C. III. 29:407; 36:50. —The venation, together with the ground-color, gives the fls. at a distance a uniform gray tone.
