with retrograde hairs, and the top with spreading ones; leaves 
rather pilose, pinnate; leaflets bipinnatifid: lobules short, acut-

5 C. Prescérru (D. C. prod. 4. p. 225.) root unknown; stem 
beset with retrograde hairs below, but glabrous above; leaves 
supra-decompound, the lower ones pilose at the petioles: supe- 
rior ones glabrous: leaflets multifid: lobes linear; leaves of in- 
volucels cuspidate and glabrous; styles hardly diverging ; fruit 
cylindrical.— Native of Altaia. Very like C. bulbdsum, but the 
styles are hardly diverging, and erectish on the fruit, which is 
much slenderer and longer.

tioles: superior ones glabrous ; segments multifid, linear; leaves

icon. t. 207. Perhaps the same as C. verticillatum, hort. paris, 
ex Pers. Root not bulbous, but tuberous and turnip-formed. 
Stem usually tumid at the nodi, spotted at the base. Leaves 
triply pinnate, finely cleft. Flowers white. The roots taken 
up early in the spring are eaten boiled, with oil and vinegar. 
Gmelin affirms both these and the seeds to occasion vertigoes ; 
but certainly this is not true, at least of the fresh root, many 
persons having eaten of that with impunity.

divided ; stem solid, striated, rough with short deflexed hairs, 
and spotted with dark purple, swelled under each leaf like most 
of the other species; leaves dark green, hairy, twice pinnate ; 
leaflets pinnatifid or lobed ; umbels of many unequal hairy seeds; 
involucra wanting, of one leaf, rarely of several; involucels of 
several ovate pointed leaves, which are finely fringed at the 
margins and keel, occasionally confluent at the base; seeds fur- 
rowed, nearly smooth. &ĝ. H. Native of Europe, in bushy 
places, and under hedges, common; plentiful in Britain. Jacq.

The whole plant is sweetish and aromatic, acceptable to domes- 
tic cattle, nor is any intoxicating quality recorded, notwithstand- 
ing the specific name. The herbage is often mildewed. Linneus 
asserts that all the flowers are perfect, which does not accord 
with Haller’s account, nor with our English specimens.

8 C. monécynum (Kit. ex Link, enum. 1. p. 281.) stem quite 
glabrous ; leaves decompound; leaflets lanceolate, deeply ser- 
rated, having the middle nerve and margins hairy; leaves of in- 
volucra and involucels ciliated. 2%. H. Native of Hungary. 
C. angulatum, Kit. According to Link and Koch, this is a very 
distinct plant from Anthriscus sylvéstris, although it has been 
joined to it by Sprengel. Perhaps C. ciliatum, Kit. in Schultes, 
syst. is the same, and probably C. nitidum, Wahl. fl. carp. p. 
85. It is perhaps only a variety of C. aúreum.

9 C. av'reum (Lin. spec. p. 370. but not of his mant.) stem 
solid, branched, angular, striated, downy, with copious short de- 
flexed hairs, intermixed with more or less numerous coarser 
bristles; leaves decompound: the stem ones remarkable for 
their tapering leaflets, with numerous fine sharp parallel seg- 
ments, their surfaces hairy or smooth; fruit in the early state 
club-shaped, when ripe linear, crowned with the lengthened 
spreading styles; seeds linear, of a tawny yellow, each with 3 
prominent obtuse permanent ribs, which are often roughish up- 
wards, as well as the furrows; involucra wanting, or of very few 
leaves; leaves of involucels ovate-lanceolate, pointed, reflexed, 
coloured. 4%. H. Native of Middle Europe, among the moun- 
tains. In Scotland between Arbroath and Montrose ; and m
