the species). D.C. prod. 4. p. 194. Fruit ornamented with 
thick adpressed stiff bristles. Vittæ not sufficiently known, but 
there are probably 4 dorsal ones, and 2 filiform hardly clavate

Pastinaca.

nate, scabrous from adpressed down beneath ; leaflets ovate-

To this Sprengel refers Tordylium siifdlium, Scop. carn. no. 
318. t. 8. but it differs in the petals being red, and in the fruit

1. p. 223. exclusive of the synonymes. Wéndia Chorodanum, 
Hoffm. umb. 139. t. 1. 8, and in lit. f. 12,13. Fruit obovate. 
Commissural vittee wanting ; but there are 4 dorsal ones which 
are clavate, and hardly attaining a third part of the length of the 
fruit. There is also a variety of this with rose-coloured flowers 
(H. réseum, Stev. in mem. soc. mose. 3. p. 260.) and more 
humble stem.

Spreng. umb. spec. 51. Schultes, syst. 6. p. 571. It differs 
from Peucédanum in the petals being deeply emarginate ; in the 
fruit being oval and flattened; in the vittæ extending nearly to 
the middle of the fruit, filiform, not saccate. It may hereafter 
prove also to be generically distinct from Herdcleum.

Secr. VI. Tricnocénrum (from Opıë rpexoc, thrix trichos, a

duous leaves.—Native of Nipaul. Fruit obovate, nearly orbi- 
cular, with 5 slender ribs. Vittæ 4, linear, drawn out a little

Warted-stemmed Cow-parsnip. Fl. June, July. Clt. 1820.

Liv. syst. Pentdndria, Digýnia. Calyx 5-toothed. Petals 
obovate, emarginate, with an inflexed point. Fruit flatly com- 
pressed from the back, and rather convex in the middle, more or 
less hairy, girded by a smooth thickened dilated margin. Meri- 
carps with very sleider ribs, the 3 dorsal ones at equal distances, 
and the 2 lateral ones more remote, and contiguous to the 
dilated margin. Vittæ covering the whole seed, the dorsal ones 
solitary between the ribs, 4 on the back of each mericarp, 
so large as to fill the furrows; but having 2 broad ones in the 
commissure. Carpophore bipartite. Seed flat.—Herbs, natives 
of the Levant, with decompound leaves, compound woe 
many leaved involucra and inyolucels, and white flowers, whic 
are not radiant. This is an intermediate genus between Hera- 
clèum and Tordýlium ; but differs from the first of these m the 
margin of the fruit being thickened, not flat ; and from the last 
in the margin of the fruit being smooth, not tubercular ; an 
from both in the form and disposition of the vittæ.
