The distinguishing features of this plant are: 



a) The herbaceous canescent angular stems 6 — 12 — 15 — 25 cm 

 long, slightly woody at the base. 



b) The imparipinnate leaves with 1 — 2—3 pairs of oblan- 

 ceolate narrow oblong, or oblong, or ovate leaflets — ter- 

 minal leaflet shortly petioled. 



c) The racemes 3,5—4,0 — 6,0 cm long. 



d) The calyx 2 — 4 mm long of which the narrow linear lan- 

 ceolate or subulate teeth are much longer th'an the tube. 



e) Only young legumes have been seen. These are compressed 

 laterally canescent offen 2 seeded. 



Until further specimens with fully ripe legumes have been 

 examined the exact position of this plant in Harvey's series must 

 remain in abeyance. 



Wilms 32 a has longer stems and narrower longer calyx teeth 

 and diflfers in certain other respects from Wilms 321. in Herb. 

 Zürich, but they are evidently forms of the same. species and the 

 above description has been drawn up to include both.
