Rami et eoi.ia exclusis dift'erentiis diugnosticis induiueutum prae- 

 cipue spectantibus ut in Serjania deflexa. Thyrsi nunc densius nunc 

 laxius cincinniferi; cincinni longius breviusve compressiuscule stipitati, 

 ]>arte superiore florifera nunc al)l)icviata nunc elongata; reliqua ut iu S. 

 deflexa. Fi.ores („albi" Seii.o) ut in S. deflexa. Repai.a exteriora pilis 

 articulatis glandulosis saepius oltsita. Germen saepius in angulis tantum 

 pilosum, ceterum rufo-glandulosum [6km<0 n. 745). Fructus, ex eo quod 

 vidi in seniiniaturis, ut iu 8. deflexa, sed pilis minus robuste setosis, po- 

 tius complanatis, paleaceis vel floccosis in mediis loculis niargineque ob- 

 situs (inteiduin forsan marline tantum pilosus, quod e genuine in Sei.i.o
