which follows their use.

to C. Libanòtis and C. lævigàta, but differs in the fruit not being 
p etiy smooth in C. lævigàta, nor deeply furrowed as in C. 
ibanòtis. Perhaps this and the two preceding plants belong to 
the following section.

9 C. crr’spa (Pers. ench. 1. p. 311.) plant glabrous, or nearly 
so; leaves multifid, trichotomous: ultimate segments short, nearly

leaves multifid, trichotomous ; leaflets linear, stiffish, elongated ; 
leaves of involucra and involucels linear, short ; fruit nearly glo- 
bose, granular from papillæ: with thick ribs: which almost close 
the furrows. %.H. Native of Persia, among rocks on the 
mountains about Seidkhodzi, where it was collected by Szowits.

cuneiform, jagged, acute; leaves of involucra and involucels lan- 
ceolate, membranous; fruit spongy, tubercular from papilla all

tomous : segments linear-subulate, stiffish; rays of umbel pu- 
berulous; umbellules crowded with flowers; calyx and fruit 
tomentose. 2%. H. Native of Persia, in gravelly places at 
Badalan. This is a very distinct species, from the fruit being

lucra and involucels linear, with membranous margins ; umbel- 
lules crowded with flowers; calyxes glabrous. Y%.H. Native 
of Persia, on arid hills at the Lake Ormiah, in the province of 
Aderbeidjan, where it was collected by Szowits. Herb small,
