ENUMERATION OF LEGUMINOS. 429 
myself on the present occasion obliged still farther to add to 
them; but having before me a great variety of specimens 
from different collections and in different states, it has ap- 
peared to me, upon a careful examination, absolutely neces- 
sary to re-model several of even Meyer’s genera, in the 
endeavour to render them as conformable to nature as 
possible, and especially to characterize them so as really to 
include the species attributed to them. 
Sub-Order PAPILIONACES. 
Corolle estivatio imbricata, papilionacea; vexillo exte- 
riore, carina interiore, alis intermediis. 
Tribe I. Popauyrizx. Benth. in Ann. Mus. Vind. 2, p. 65. 
Filamenta omnia libera. Legumen continuum. Folia 
simplicia v. palmatim composita. 
Sub- Tribe EuPODALYRIEX. 
Ovarium pluri-ovulatum. Legumen uniloculare. 
In my above-mentioned memoir, I enumerated three 
genera only ofthis sub-tribe as belonging to the northern 
hemisphere. Since that time, however, I have seen the fruits 
of a considerable number of species, and an entirely new 
genus has been proposed by Nuttall for a Californian plant, 
of which the fruit is unfortunately as yet unknown. I should 
now therefore propose to adopt the five following genera, 
which must probably be either all kept distinct, or else all 
joined together as sections of Anagyris. 
Anagyris.—Vexillum alis brevius, lateribus non reflexis. 
Legumen stipitatum planum. Frutices Regionis Mediterra- 
nex, stipulis connatis oppositifoliis.* 
* Tenore, in distinguishing his A. neapolitana, (Syll. Fl. Neap. p. 198), 
says that the true A. fetida has a cylindrical pod, which I have never 
seen; nor can I perceive any real difference between his A. neapolitana, 
and that which is usually considered as A. fetida, and which I have from 
Gibraltar, from Arles in France, and from various parts of Italy and
