one-third of an inch broad); upper side glabrous ; under paler, sprinkled

broad) ; upper side glabrous; under with adpressed pubescence: racemes 
leaf-opposed, stiff, few-flowered, 3-5 times longer than the leaves: bracteas 
subulate, nearly as long as the short pedicels, scattered along the rachis, some 
of the lower ones occasionally without flowers: flowers small.—Wight! cat.

_ Perhaps C. virgata of Martius and De Candolle may belong to this species, — — 
ut their description is exceedingly imperfect: we hesitate about bringing it — 
here principally from its leaves being described glabrous, and from the flowers 
of C. Orizensis being said by Martius to be the most minute of the var 
while those of C. neglecta are much smaller. C. medicaginea, Ham.! in all.: 
L. n. 5434 (not Lam.), appears to be a luxuriant form of C. neglecta, but We

This species and C. neglecta are very closely allied; and unless specimens 
of both be in a perfect state, it is almost impossible to distinguish them. .
