A small .shi'ub about a foot high with brownish corky protuberances in more or less 

 irregularly interrupted rows; leaves glabrous beneath; peduncle only one-flowered, 

 6-61 nim. long; two opposite minute brownish bracts toward the base. I consider the 

 ])lant to be of the typical form. The corky ridges, though not well developed, and the 

 smoothness of the leaves exclude it from vars. suMriJiora i\,\\i\. j)ubescen,s.
