Flores sub anthesi patentes, secundi; post anthesim vero penduli; 
odore quodam anisato praediti sunt. Non tantum dentes laterales labii 
superioris, quin et dens medius, sunt in carinam plicati. Planta Pyre- 
naeorum comparata cum alpina, ex Gaudin observatione, profert co- 
rollas minores, minusque inflexas, Habitus Salviae lyratae L., Dill. Hrt.

Adeo notabilem Bentham observationem iterum afferre libeat: « 4 
single Europaean species with some affinity to the Melissae Meliphylla 
(sie) but much more to the Salviae Heterophaces, and especially to Salvia 
lyrata, with which Linnaeus associatedis, butfrom whic it differs by the 
presence of the upper stamina, and by structure of the anthers. Its con- 
nate anthers (vhich are exactly those of Monarda), and the anulus in 
the tube of the corolla remove, it from Melissineae, and indicate its place 
next, if not amongst, the Monardeae » Benth. Lab. Ast in definitione 
generis Monardae, Ibid. p. 315., (ut in DC. Pr. P. 12. p. 361.) habet 
revera antheras margine connatas, sed dieit tubum corollae intus exa- 
nulatum, quem talem iterum confirmat in descriptione Monardae di- 
dymae L. fusius, prae caeteris, deseriptae, p. 316. Quidam nostrum 
genus inter Melissam, et Hyssopum ponunt, quos ego non imitatus sum 
ne a Monographo discederem. Restat adhue confirmandus, aut statuendus 
locus hujus generis in sinu. Ordinis pone accuratiores observationes; cum 
plurimis hujus ditissimae familiae plantis ad manus.
