ENUMERATION OF LEGUMINOSA. 559 
In sylvis primitivis ad ripam fluminis Goukamma, distr. 
George (IV. C. b.), Feb. 1839. Krauss, n. 1192.—An species 
distincta? (M. Drégeana nob. olim.) 
This species has the habit and inflorescence of M. perennis. 
Stems about one foot high, round, contracted (at least in the 
dry state) at the joints (nodi), with fistulose internodia of 
14-3 inches in length. Lamina of the leaves 1-14 inch long, 
8-11 lines broad near the base; the marginal teeth very 
equal and blunt, scarcely one line distant from each other, 
becoming insensibly smaller and more acute towards the base 
of the lamina; stipules not quite 1 line long. Without 
having seen more numerous specimens, and also of the fe- 
male plant, we dare not decide whether our var. 6. ought 
to form a distinct species.

§ 6. Eriocarpe. Herbe v. frutices erecta, seepius elata et 
villosa, rarius humilia. Stipule nulle v. non decurrentes. 
Kacemi terminales, sepius multiflori v. paniculati, rarius 
demum oppositifolii. Legumen adpresse v. velutino-pubes- 
cens v, villosum.—Species omnes hic enumerate. 
The habit is usually that of the Erecte, from which they 
are distinguished by the pod more or less hairy. A few of 
the smaller species come near to some of the Diffuse, but 
are here placed on account of their erect stems with terminal 
inflorescence. `
