Stamens cfcadelphous. Siigma flattened and hooked. The 

 flowers grow in an elliptical head without braBes, are nearly 

 feffile, of a dirty white colour. 



This plant differs from Tri folium pannonkum efpecially in 

 not having ftraight ftems, nor leaflets nearly fo long and nar- 

 row, in the teeth of the calyx being much more patent and 

 rigid, and the vcxillum fhorter, broader, and more obtufe. 



°Althongh we have not been able to authenticate this fpecies by 

 a comparifon with a figure or undoubted fpecimen, we think 

 there can be very little doubt of the name being rightly ap- 

 plied ; as we do not difcover any difagreement between 

 Willdenow's description and our own, except that he fays 

 the tube of the calyx is fmooth, which in our plant is very 

 villous, but the hail's on the teeth are lb very much longer, 

 that the others might be overlooked unlefs examined with a 

 magnifier.
