flowers shortly pedicelled, an inch long, bright violet-red. 

 Calyx hemispheric, minutely bibracteolate, obliquely trun- 

 cate, five-toothed, the lower tooth rather the longest. 

 Standard narrowly oblong-obovate, emarginate, equalling 

 the narrow linear wings which have clecurved points and long 

 spur-like basal lobes ; keel-petals much larger and longer 

 than the wings and standard, dimidiate-oblong, obtuse. 

 Filaments glabrous; anthers minute. Ovary lanceolate, 

 stipitate, glabrous ; style filiform ; stigma minute. Pod 

 stipitate, biarticulate, joints quite flat, oblong, one-half to 

 two-thirds of an inch long, with a thin flat margin and 

 reticulately nerved faces; pericarp very thin. Seeds 

 flattened, reniform, much smaller than the cell.
