foliolo supremo adstans.  Petioluli erassi, 23—4" longi.  Foliola 
pleraque 14-22" metientia, cuspidulata, prominenter et distanter 
penninervia, reticulari-venosa, supra nitidula et preter nervum 
medianum subglabra, subtus pallidiora opaca et parce pilosa. 
Pedunculi 2-4" longi, basi bractea foliacea 1-1" metiente involu- 
cerati. .Rachis inflorescentisz sesquipolliearis v. brevior, pubescens. 
Pedicelli gemini v. subfasciculati, tenues, glabri v. leniter pube- 
scentes, 3-5" longi. Bracteolz lineari-subulatz, citissime cadentes, 
dense villoso-sericez, vix 1" longiores. Calyces circiter 23" longi, 
pene ad medium bilabiati; labia ciliolata; superum fere semior- 
bieulatum, incisura brevissima bidentatum; labii inferi dentes 
semilanceolato-deltoidei, circiter 1" longi, parum inzquales. Petala 
glabra, preter vexilli basin exsiecatione violacea. Vexillum 
circa 3" metiens, ante unguem circiter 1" metientem pallescentem 
breviter plieato-bieallosum. — Al: semihastato-elliptieze. ^ Carina 
fere semirotunda, cujus petala apice et inferne libera. Stamina 
diadelpha; vexillare haud geniculatum. Antherz flavs, conformes, 
circiter j^" longs. Stylus glaber, curvato-subulatus. Stigma 
minutum, eapitellatum. ' Legumen fuscescens, circiter 13" longum, 
. eylindrieum, leniter depressum, pleiospermum, rostro 2-3" longo 
przditum, membranis transversalibus imperfectis spurie loculatum. 
Funiculi brevissimi. Strophiola livida, subrotunda, circiter 1" 
metiens. Semina opaca, 13-13" longa, globoso-ovata. Albumen 
copiosum, sordide canum, demum indurans. Embryo lateri ven- 
trali seminis contiguus, a latere dorsali distinctus, viridis. Cotyle- 
dones crassiuscule foliaceze, oblique ovato-oblongz, rectz, radicula 
brevi repressa saltem duplo longiores. 
K. bracteata (Gaud. in Freyc. Voy. Bot. 486, t. 113) ex icone 
differt foliolis magis ovatis subtus sericeo-pubescentibus, pedunculis 
brevibus 1—3 floris, pedicellis basi bractea ex duabus connatis 
constante involucratis, floribus majoribus, calycibus pilosulis, alis 
earina brevioribus, germine puberulo, legumine erostri. 
Kennedya macrophylla (Physolobium macrophyllum, Meisn. in 
Lehm. Plant. Preiss. ii. 222) fide descriptionis dignoscitur stipulis 
connatis, pedunculis ebracteatis, floribus minoribus. 
Embryonis et albuminis forma color consistentia et situs in 
Kennedya rubicunda, K. monophylla, K. prostrata, K. bracteata, 
et K. lateritia satis congruunt. 
Genera Hardenbergia Zichya et Physolobium certe ad Kenne- 
diam revocanda sunt.
