dal, 5-sided, of 5-cocci, falling away at maturity from a persistent axis. 
—Endl. Gen. No. 6034. 
Herbaceous plants, natives of the dry Mediterranean regions, and of the African 
and Asiatic deserts. Leaves 3-foliolate, opposite ; stipules pungent, spreading. 
Peduncles 1-flowered, axillary. Flowers purple or violet, rarely yellow. Name in 
honour of M. Fagon, a great patron of botany under Louis XIV. 
1. F. cretica (Linn.) var. glandulosa(Harv.) ; glandularly pubescent ; 
leaflets rhombic-ovate or ovato-lanceolate, the lateral unequal-sided, 
spinoso-mucronate ; stipules subulate, pungent, patent ; capsule pubes- 
cent or glandular, broader than long. 
Has. Namaqualand, Mr. A. Wyley. (Herb. T.C.D., Hook., Sond.) 
Stems woody at base, procumbent, much branched. Petioles 4-7 lines long ; the 
leaflets as long or shorter, 3-4 lines wide, the medial twice the width of the lateral. 
Flowers lilac-purple, with bright orange stamens. Except in pubescence this does 
not differ from the plant of the North African desert. We have equally pubescent 
specimens from India.

Has. Namaqualand, Andr. Wyley, Esq. (Herb. T.C.D.) 
A rigid shrub. Leaves densely set on short twigs, pectinato-pinnate, the common 
petiole with narrow, glabrous, revolute wings between the leaf-pairs. Leaflets 8-10 
pairs, 1-14 inch long, 1 line wide, patent, exactly linear, pale green, rigid. Stipules 
broad at base, subulate-attenuate. Peduncles purple, puberulous, 3-4 inches long, 
with 3-4 imperfect whorls of flowers. Bracts equalling the pedicels, 2-3 lines wide. 
Flowers dull red. Posterior sepal § lines long, concave, broad at base, ending in 
2 short, blunt lateral lobes, and one medial, subulate cusp: lateral (inner) se 
broadly subulate ; two lower sepals 9-10 lines long, oblong, acute, striate. P. 4, 
on mag claws ; lamina undulate, lanceolate, reflexed, the two lower toothed at the 
base of the lamina. Shorter stamens connate at base; longer not half as long as 
the lower sepals. A very distinct species, easily known by its narrow and quite 
entire leaflets. Only one specimen seen.
