FLORA OF SOUTH AFRICA. 53E 
diagnosis agrees perfectly well, and perhaps Smyrnium late- 
rale, Thunb. fl. Cap. p. 254, DC. 1. c. p. 248, may be in the 
same case. 
10. Petroselinum humile, n. sp., glabrum, caule erecto, e 
basi ramoso, subangulato-costato; foliorum laciniis acutis, 
margine minutissime scabriusculis, inferioribus cuneatis pin- 
natim 3-5-fidis, superioribus integris; umbellis terminalibus, 
demum lateralibus oppositifoliis, pedunculatis, folium æquan- 
tibus; involucro obsoleto v. nullo; involucelli foliolis lineari- 
bus acutis, pedicellos æquantibus, paucis, persistentibus. 
Inter arundines in planitie prope Port Natal (V. c.) Oct. 
1839, Krauss, n. 418. 
A small herb, scarcely 6 inches high, with a simple, per- 
pendicular, thin root. The leaves are like those of Scandi 
Cerefolium, and the asperity of their margin and middle nerve 
is imperceptible to the naked eye. The inflorescence is the same 
as in Apium graveolens, except that the umbelle are stalked 
and furnished with involucres. The fruit is a little smaller 
than that of Petroselinum sativum, but entirely of the same 
form and structure, having in each vallecula one vitta, and 
two strongly marked ones on the planum commissurale.

his diagnosis agrees perfectly with our specimens. From 
H. arborescens, Cham. et Schl. this species is easily distin- 
guished by its constantly mucronate leaves, which in the 
other, are simply acute or even obtuse, and by the shorter 
a epis numerous radii of the umbella.
