_In general appearance this species is very close to S. hymenosepala, Gilg, but 
differs in the longer internodes, more ovate herbaceous leaves ; only one anther- 
gland appears to be present, whilst in S. hymenosepala from the Cape there appear 
to be two minute basal glands. : 
63. 8. hymenosepala (Gilg in Engl. Jahrb. xxvi. 89); annual 
or biennial, erect, 6-11 in. high, usually branching from the 
base, with erect simple branches ; leaves numerous and crowded in 
the lower parts of the stem, broadly orbicular-ovate to subreniform, 
3-44 lin. long, 4-6 lin. broad, obtuse or apiculate, somewhat 
coriaceous ; inflorescence composed of compact many-flowered cymes 
borne on numerous axillary branches; calyx-segments 2}—4 lin. 
long, ovate-lanceolate, acute, with membranous keel-wing }—} lin. 
wide, broadest below the middle ; corolla-tube 24-3} lin. long ; lobes 
about 3 lin. long, 1-2 lin. broad, spathulate, slightly cucullate ; 
filaments }—3 lin. long ; anthers 1-1} lin. long, with apical and two
