Racemis paucifloris pedunculos subæquantibus, /foribus multo majoribus 
(12-13 mm. longis) petalo superiore latius alato subacuto et breviter rostellato, 
fructibus subrotundis apice abrupte trurcatis obsolete foveolatis sine maculis 
nigris a typo differt. 
Hæc pulchra varietas habitat in Istria, prope Polam, et in Dalmatia, circa 
Spalato, ubi ex Egypto aut Palestiná forsan introducta est. 
F. flabellata longe distat pedunculis longioribus, pedicellis fructiferis 
areuatis recurvis nec erecto-patentibus, sepalis magnis ovatis, et petali 
superioris alis atropurpureis nee albidis. 
In the case of F. judaica, Hammar's description, though taken from the 
living plant, seems unsatisfactory respecting the calyx and the fruit. All the 
specimens examined show very small, oblong-lanceolate sepals, as described 
by Boissier and Haussknecht, and while the fruit varies in the development 
of its keel, no mucronulus has been observed in any dried example that 
has reached maturity. A feature of the fruit hitherto unnoticed is the 
conspicuous tubercle at the base of the inner apical pit. Good flowers are 
very frequently lacking in herbarium material of this species (especially of 
the Egyptian plant), and it is probable that the Syrian and Egyptian forms 
are not exactly identical, the fruiting pedicels in the latter (the form 
described by Hammar) being distinctly shorter. It may also prove that 
F. judaica occurs in Greece and has been confounded with the following 
species. 
An example in Herb. Mus. Brit. from Central Africa (Oudney, Denham & 
Clapperton, 1822-4, as F. officinalis !) is seemingly referable to F. judaica.
