This plant has all the appearance of an Argyrolobium, but the char- 

 acters of the calyx and the turgid legume would place it in the genus 

 Lotononis. Schiuz in Bull. Herb. Boiss. vii. 30 described it as L. 

 montana on the specimen Wood, 4603 (this description appeared three 

 years later than Bolus'), and remarks "the plant was originally 

 marked as an Argyrolobium, and Avill be found in most collections 

 under that genus ; the structure of the calyx makes the position there 

 impossible, although it certainly in habit recalls several of the prostrate 

 Argyrolobiums. Phillips, 942, is a form of the species with smaller 

 leaves which are silvery white.
