Stem an inch or two long, leafy at the crown. Leaves 8-16 inches long, the 
petiole as long ; the lamina cut into filiform shreds, sometimes setaceous, sometimes 
twice or thrice as thick, always very long and entire. The specimens, with slender 
leaf-lobes, are quite glabrous, the others have a few scattered hairs. These latter 
approach P. anethifoliwm in aspect, but differ decidedly in the stipules and other 
characters. The petals are pale, spotless, and of thinner substance than usual in 
this group. The broad-stamen is taper-pointed, or semi-lanceolate. I have plea- 
sure in inscribing this remarkable species to the memory of its discoverer, the late 
estimable Charles Zeyher of Uitenhage, one of the ablest and most indefatigable ex- 
plorers of the Botany of South Africa. 
63. P. flabellifolium (Harv.) ; radical leaves on long, terete, hairy 
petioles, broadly flabelliform, truncate at base, pilose, palmately many- 
lobed, and many-nerved, the lobes sharply toothed, the nerves promi- 
nent, radiating, with closely netted, prominent veinlets; stipules broadly 
subulate, acuminate, rigid ; scapes very longand hairy ; umbel densely 
many-flowered, with lanceolate bracts ; calyx softly pubescent, the seg- 
ments lanceolate, acute, half as long as the (dark red?) obovate petals,

Leaves 5-10 inches long and broad, rigid. The strongly-netted and prominent 
‘venation distinguishes this from any of the broad-leaved forms of P. aconitophyllum ; 
the section of the leaf is also different, and the size much greater. The name ‘“ jla- 
bellifolium” is given by Sweet to a hybrid (Sw. vol. §. t. 48) which must not be con- 
founded with our species.
