Known to me only from the description; perhaps only a 

 hairy variety of F. glomerata.

I have only seen the specimens collected by Diels (quoted

Only the specimens quoted by Diels and Pritzel (1. c) from 

 Cummening (distr. Avon) were seen. 



12. Frankenia parvula Turcz., Bull. Mose. XXVII (1854) 368;
