Tenoria difformis, Spreng. in Schultes, syst. 6. p. 377. Bu- 
prestis difformis, Spreng. mag. Ribs of fruit rounded and tumid, 
lateral ones somewhat dilated; vittee 2-3 in each furrow. This 
shrub sends out side branches, which in the spring have on their 
lower parts leaves, composed of many small flat leaflets, finely 
cut like those of coriander, and of a sea green colour; these 
leaves soon fall off, and the upper part of the branches are closely 
covered with long rush-like leaves, having 4 angles, coming out 
in clusters from each joint.

51 B. ponyeny’tium (Ledeb. mem. ac. sc. petrop. 5. p. 528.) 
stem erect, striated, branched above; leaves lanceolate, stem~- 
clasping ; umbels of many unequal rays; involucrum almost 
Wanting ; involucels of 6 lanceolate acuminated leaves, which 
exceed the fruit. 2.H. Native of Caucasus. Flowers said 
to be solitary in the axils of the branches. 
Many-leaved Hare’s-ear. Fl. May, June. Cit. 1823. Pl. 1 ft. 
52 B.? oprostrirétium (Lapeyr. abr. pyr. p. 141.) stem 
naked ; branches umbellate ; leaves opposite, lanceolate, obtuse, 
herved ; involucrum almost wanting; involucels of 5 lanceolate 
awned leaves. ©. H. Native of the Pyrenees, at a place called 
Trancade d’Ambouilla. This species is very obscure, and very 
doubtful whether it is an umbelliferous plant at all. 
Opposite-leaved Hare’s-ear. Pl. 1 foot. 
Cult. All the species grow well in any common garden soil. 
The seeds of the annual species only require to be sown in the 
Open ground early in spring. The herbaceous perennial kinds 
are either increased by being divided at the roots, or by seeds ; 
and the shrubby species by cuttings.

running from the teeth of the calyx, and therefore are the cari- 
nal ribs extended; vittæ one in each furrow, and 2 in the com- 
missure.—A glabrous Cape shrub, with the habit of Buplearum 
Jruticisum. Leaves petiolate, ovate or oblong, rarely somewhat 
triple-nerved, someiimes quite entire, sometimes 3-lobed, tri- 
partite or ternate. Umbels of many rays. Involucra and in- 
volucels of many short leaves. Flowers yellow as in Bupleirum.

characters) or Orthospérme paucijugate teretiuscule, Koch,

terete, or nearly so. Mericarps with 5 equal filiform or winged 
ribs: lateral ribs marginating, and often a little broader than 
the rest. Seed somewhat teretely convex on the back, and flat- 
tish in front. Raphe marginal or submarginal.

Lin. syst. Pentandria, Digynia. Margin of calyx 5-toothed. 
Petals elliptic, drawn out into a long acumen, which is bent in 
nearly to the base. Fruit nearly terete, variable in length, 
crowned by the teeth of the calyx in the immature state, and by 
the stylopodium and short spreading styles. Mericarps smooth, 
with 5 filiform ribs, lateral ones marginating ; vitte large, soli- 
tary under each rib, but none in the commissure nor furrows.—-. 
Perennial herbs, natives of the Cape of Good Hope, yielding an 
aromatic juice. Radical leaves cut. Stems erect, fistular, naked, 
branched, furnished with sheathing scales or abortive leaves. 
Terminal umbels compound, fertile: lateral ones often sterile. 
Involucra and involucels of many short marcescent leaves. 
Flowers yellow? This genus from the situation of the vittæ 
agrees alone with Melanoselinum, but the form of the fruit is 
very different.
