 its teeth 1| line long; the tube of the corolla is 2^ lines, its seg-

This has a habit almost herbaceous, and still more virgate and 

 slender than the preceding; the lower leaves are wanting in the 

 specimens I have seen ; the medial leaves are 7 lines long, 2 lines 

 broad at the rounded apex, diminishing into a long slender 

 petiole ; those above are of the same length and only ^rd of a 

 line broad : the pedicel is 2 lines long, the calyx 2 lines, the tube 

 of the corolla 2 lines, the linear segments of the border are 4 

 lines in length : the capsule is 3 hues long and 1| line in dia- 

 meter. 



6. Anthocercis anisantha, Endl. Stirp. Austr. Decad. p. 13; 

 Benth. in DC. Prodr. x. 192 ;— viscoso-pubescens, ramis ra- 

 mulisque spinescentibus ; foliis in ramulorum axiUis fascicu- 

 latis, oblongo-cuneatis, obtusis, integerrimis ; calycis dentibus 

 tubo sequilongis, lineari-lanceolatis ; coroUse laciniis anguste 

 linearibus, tribus brevioribus; capsula ovata. — In Australia 

 austro-occidentalis interioribus. 



The tube of the calyx is said to be 1 line long, and its teeth of 

 equal length : the tube of the corolla 2 hues, and its two longer 

 segments of the same length.

 linearibus, carnosulis, spinis multo brevioribus ; floribus pau-
