68 FLORA OF SOUTH AFRICA. 
our plant the 5 lobes of the wide cup-shaped calyx are almost 
of equal length (1 lin.), lanceolate and acute. Racemes 
without bracts, 8-12 flowered, pedicels 3-5 lines long. 
Flowers yellow, 6 lines long, vexillum complicated, roundish 
when expanded, scarcely longer than the ale and carina, 
with two small pubescent callosities at the base; carina 
equal to the ale, with a short almost blunt beak, densely 
bearded with short whitish hairs along the upper margin. 
Five longer stamens with linear anthers alternating with 
five shorter ones with oval anthers. Style longer than the 
stamina, pubescent at the top, stigma obtuse; ovary gla- 
brous. Legumen, including its stalk (which varies from 
1 to 2 lin. in length) 15-17 lines long, with a very short blunt 
beak, almost cylindrical, and scarcely attenuated at the ends, 
coriaceous, smooth, without conspicuous veins, sutures 
sharp, though scarcely prominent, the upper one straight, 
seeds numerous, oblong. Lateral folioles 4-5 lines long, 
terminal one about 2 lines longer, all of the same form and 
breadth (2-3 lines); they are rounded at the extremity and 
more or less, though never considerably, emarginate, gene- 
rally with a minute, blunt and recurved mucro, the inferior 
surface is thinly pilose, the superior (except in the younge : 
state) quite smooth. Almost every axilla bears two similar 
but smaller leaves. Stipules 3 lin. long, 3-21. broad. Pu- 
bescence of the branches and petioles like that of the leaves, 
but more conspicuous.

We have not seen either of Meyer's two species of this 
genus, to which, however, our specimens, though only in 
fruit, seem to belong, especially as to the pacila habit, in 
which they perfectly agree with the description. Dr. Meyer 
does not mention the narrow wing at the superior margin 
of the fruit, which our specimens distinctly show, and by 
which they approach the genus Lebeckia. The latter, how- 
ever, as well as Rafnia and Pelecynthis, which have a similat 
fruit, are quite different in habit.
