lines long. Pedicels 1-2 lines long. Legumes 3 lines long. Differs in inflorescence 
_ from all the other Cape species.

77. I. fulerata (Harv.) ; suffruticose, ascending, nearly glabrous ; 
branches terete; leaves on long petioles, bijugate; leaflets elliptical or 
obovate-oblong, mucronulate, one nerved, glabrous, glaucous beneath, 
the terminal long-petioled; stipules large, membranous, lanceolate; ra- 
cemes on long peduncles, laxly many flowered; bracts large, membra- 
nous, enclosing the buds, deciduous ; calyx open, shortly 5 toothed ; 
petals puberulous ; legumes straight, subterete with prominent sutures, 
narrow, acute at each end, glabrous, many seeded. Zey. 496.

1-2 feet high or more, woody at base, herbaceous upwards, ascending-suberect ; 
branches curved, finely striate, not angular. Common petiole 2-23 inches long, the 
first pair of leaflets an inch or more from the base, the others }-1 inch apart. Leaf- 
lets nearly inch long and about half inch wide, dark when dry, the under surface 
blueish. Stipules 4 inch long, 2 lines wide, withering. Peduncles 6-8 inches 
mg ; pedicels 2-24 lines long, erect, 1-2 lines apart. Bracts broadly ovate or sub- 
rotund-acuminate, falling off on the opening of the buds. Calyx 4 line long. Petals 
purple, 5~6 lines long, thinly downy. Legumes at least 2 inches long, 1 line wide, 
callous pointed, dark brown. A very distinct species, with stipules unlike any other 
of this section. It seems most allied to J. amoena, but the leaves are constantly bi- 
jugate, and there are other differences, 
78. I. cytisoides (Thunb. Prod. 13 3); shrubby, robust, erect ; branches 
angular, subcanescent ; leaves subsessile, bijugate ; leaflets stipellate, 
obovate-oblong, obtuse, mucronate, midribbed, pale beneath, thinly 
strigilloso-canescent on both sides, the terminal petiolate, rather larger ; 
stipules broadly subulate, stipellz setaceo-subulate ; racemes erect, longer _ 
than the leaf, cylindrical, densely flowered, elongating; bracts broadly 
ovate, deciduous ; calyces silky, the lobes subulate, acuminate ; petals — 
minutely silky; legumes erect, tereti-quadrangular, subtorulose, thinly 
canescent. Zhunb./ Fl. Cap. p. 598. DC. Prod. 2, p. 230. Jacq. Schoenb.
