in A. virgata, mollissime pilose, floribus (teste E. Meyero) 
badiis. 
Cape Flats and neighbouring hills, from various collectors. 
This plant is named A. Jotoides in Linn:eus's herbarium, but can- 
not well be Thunberg’s species of that name. ^ Bergius's Ps 
mens, distributed by the Berlin Museum under the nam of 
A. jacobea, belong to A. procumbens, a species often resembling it 
in habit, but readily distinguished by the looser inflorescence, and 
by the number of ovules.
