differ. Mixed with Dr. Gillies’ specimens of the above 
(we are uncertain from which locality), is perhaps a fifth 
variety (s), with racemes 2- rarely 3-flowered, shorter 
than the leaf, and stipules deeply toothed, but the leaflets, 
which are rather broader and shorter than in æ, y, 3, are 
usually 10 in number; there seems, however, no other 
difference. | 4. and £. have blue or purplish flowers: all 
those from Dr. Gillies (by drying?) become yellowish- 
white. De Candolle has omitted this species.
