 or 15 inches high, leafy, angular, a little downy, with many la-

 partly scattered, stalked, smooth, briglit green, doubly pinna- 

 tifid • the segments obtuse, bluntly notched, various in breadth. 

 Fl. axillary, opposite, solitary, nearly sessile, of an elegant crim-

Of a more humble stature than the preceding, with several, spread- 

 ing or recumbent, unbranched stems, from a large, fleshy, ta- 

 pering, subdivided root, which Mr. Purton murks annual, as 

 Ray does that of both our species. The present has no appear- 

 ance of being so. Ler/zjes alternate, doubly pinnatifid and notch- 

 ed J radical ones ovate, undivided, crenate, recurved. Fl. of a 

 more uniform rose-colour than the last ; tlie lobes of their lower 

 lip not fringed. Cat. more oblong and tubular, with 4 larger 

 angles, and as many intermediate smaller ones ; the margin un- 

 equally cut into 5 notched segments. Unquestionably a most 

 distinct species, though Willdenow expresses some doubts on 

 the subject. 



The Marquis of Stafford found one regular salver-shaped ^ower, 

 with G segments, and as many stamens, 4 of them long, and 2 

 short, on a wild specimen, near his castle of Dunrobin in Su- 

 therland, North Britain, in 1808. See Tr. of Linn. Soc. v. 10.

 the same neighbourhood, the following season.
