Anticlea vasiliata is one of two species of Anticlea that occur in the Ottawa area, and at my location is the more common of the two.
The ground color of the forewing of Anticlea vasiliata is medium brown.
The usual pattern of lines is most visible in the photo at bottom left, which shows two dark lines defining a band across the basal area, a scalloped dark brown postmedial line with a deep double outward scallop near the midpoint, and a faint whitish scalloped subterminal line.

Anticlea multiferata is one of two species of Anticlea that occur in the Ottawa area and, at my location, by far the less common of the two.
The forewing of Anticlea multiferata is a rich brown, slighly wine-toned, crossed by many parallel, almost straight lines of yellowish white.
According to Handfield (1999), the larvae of Anticlea multiferata feed on willow-herb and prostrate knotweed.

Mountain deathcamas (Anticlea elegans) is an erect perennial herb arising from a deep-seated tunicated (or onion-like) bulb with many, linear, graminoid (grass-like), basal leaves.
Anticlea elegans is a plant of moist meadows and mountain slopes in montane to alpine settings.
The tepals of these species are shorter than those of Anticlea elegans and the inner whorl of tepals narrow abruptly at the base and are considered to be clawed.

 Zomlefer, Wendy B.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
An outcome of this research is the recognition of seven genera (most with novel circumscription) within the tribe Melanthieae: Amianthium, Anticlea, Schoenocaulon, Stenanthium, Toxicoscordion, Veratrum, and Zigadenus.
Reinstatement of segregate genera Anticlea and Toxicoscordion (of the former polyphyletic Zigadenus complex) and redefinition of Zigadenus, Stenanthium, and Veratrum, allow for a revised, practical taxonomy that defines monophyletic groups and reflects phylogenetic relationships within tribe Melanthieae.
Further, identification of monophyletic subgeneric groupings within Veratrum is a critical first step that furnishes a framework for understanding relationships and divides this large and variable genus into manageable subsets suitable for further investigation.

Similar Species: Anticlea virescens also has nodding flowers but is distinguished by its small white to pale green tepals only 4-8 mm long and shorter bracts (usually less than the length of the pedicel).
Anticlea elegans has erect flowering pedicels and broadly spreading flowers (nearly rotate) with white tepals less than 10 mm long.
It is not threatened by current forest uses, but forest fire effects on this plant need study.

Of course, being a literary god, a Nobel Prize winner, one of the inventors of modern Caribbean theater and a self-confessed sonofabitch (no offense to Miss Alix), Derek refuses to treat her any differently from how he treats any of the cast’s other 70-year-olds.
On her second day, she met in the morning with Derek and Antonio ‘Odysseus’; Valero at the Hotel des Estrangers to read through the Anticlea scene and when the rest of us got to rehearsal, Derek announced that Bose had done an amazing job with Anticlea.
Because Derek’s dragon lady has decided she ain’t doing this thing where she has to learn a whole set of lines—especially when that scene, as beautiful as it is, is so damn messy.
