Rami teretes, 1-2-pedales, divaricato-ramosi, setis numerosis rigidis.hispidi, inter setas puberuli. Aculeos 
nullos vidi, Stipule 2-3 lin. longe, glabra, ciliate, fusca, insigniter striate. Petioli communes 1-2 poll. 
longi. inne pollice longiores vel inferiores breviores, inter se distantes. Setee inter pinnas seepius vix 
semilineam longee, basi subdilatates. Stipelle vix conspicuee. Foliola 2-3 lin. longa, acutiuscula vel obtusa, 
venosa, basi obliqua, 1-3-nervia. Pedunculi 1-3 lin. longi. Capitula florifera 2-3 lin. diametro, ciliis 
bracteolarum hispidissima. Calyx minutus. Corolla membranacea, laciniis brevibus pilosulis. Ovarium 
hirsutissimum. Legumen 2-4 lin. longum, vix 2 lin, latum, acutiusculum. 
Very nearly allied to M. camporum, and perhaps a mere variety, but it is 
much more hairy, has no prickles, the stipules are broader and the bracts longer.

demum concave, infra pinnas inferiores et foliola ultima plus minus conspicue. inne inter se distantes. 
Foliola opposita, remota, in pinnis inferioribus sepius bijuga, in ultimis 3-4-juga, 14-2-poll. longa, basi
