glabrous. EE. satureioides, Sond. ex Bolus in Journ. Linn. Soc. 
xxiv. 182. 
EASTERN REGION, in rocky places at 6000-7500 ft.: Griqualand East; 
summit of Ingeli Mountain, Tyson, 1290! and in Herb. Norm. Aust.-Afr., 469! 
Pondoland ; Insizwa Mountains, Schlechter, 6493! Fakus Territory, Sutherland / 
Natal; on the Drakensberg Range at Polela, Evans, 673! 
Allied to E. filiformis, from which it differs by its fewer flowers in the whorl, 
and its appendiculate anthers. The corolla is singularly like it in shape and 
texture, except that the limb in this is considerably longer. 
195. E. aspalathoides (Guthrie & Bolus in Engl. Jahrb, xxvii. 
173); diffuse, very slender, weakly-trailing, almost herbaceous in 
appearance; branches spreading, about 4-} lin. in diam. at their 
thickest part, 4-8 in. long, closely leafy, thinly hairy, red-brown ; 
leaves 4-nate, squarrose or recurved, linear-setaceous, 1-2 lin. long, 
1-1 lin. broad, longer than the internodes, with 2-3 obsolete teeth 
on either side, each tooth and the apex bearing a long fine white 
gland-tipped hair ; flowers few ; pedicels short, about 7-1 lin. long; 
bracts approximate, leaf-like and with similar white hairs, but pale 
brown coloured, 12 lin. long; sepals leaf-like, coloured like the 
bracts, and about as long, reaching to the top of the corolla; corolla 
cyathiform, slightly widened at the mouth, glabrous, dry (when 
dried, pale brown) 14 lin. long; segments erect, rounded, 5—} the 
length of the tube; filaments capillary, dilated just below the 
anther; anthers semi-exserted, lateral, dorsifixed close to the base, 
narrow-oblong, very pale brown, less than 3 lin. long, aristate ; pore 
about 2 the length of the cell; awns about } the length of the cell ; 
style exserted, slender, bent; stigma small, capitellate; ovary 
puberulous. 
Coast Recion: Clanwilliam Div.; Cederberg Range, at Ezelsbank, near 
Wupperthal, 5000 ft., Schlechter, 8812! 
Easily recognized by the extreme fineness of its leaves. This species must not 
be confused with E. aspalathifolia, Bolus. 
196. E. Mundii (Guthrie & Bolus); erect, rigid; branches 
puberulous and _ hispid; leaves 3-nate, spreading, not crowded, 
oblanceolate or oblong, acute, rarely subobtuse, open-backed with 
reflexed margins, sometimes almost flat, ciliate on margins and on 
midrib, occasionally hairy below, glabrous above, the upper some- 
times oblong, suleate, and apparently subterete, by the more strongly 
revolute margins, or even all the leaves so, 13-2 lin. long ; flowers 
terminal, 3-nate, or umbellate and 4-6-flowered ; pedicels slender, 
3_2 lin. long; bracts remote, small, adpressed ; sepals linear-subulate 
or lanceolate, acute, foliaceous, callous-pointed, coloured, viscid, 
about 1 lin. long; corolla cyathiform, mouth scarcely contracted or 
widened, glabrous or minutely hairy, viscidulous, & to a little 
over 1 lin. long, and about the same in width; segments erect, 
subdeltoid, about 2 the length of the tube ; filaments slender, equal ; 
anthers included or subexserted, lateral, dorsifixed shortly above
