MR. J. BALL’S SPICILEGIUM FLORH MAROCCANS. 437 
VIcIA ELEGANS (Guss. Prod. Fl. Sic. 11. 438)? 
Mar. merid.—Legi spec. unicum in aitione Mesfioua ! 
V. elegans, Guss., species mihi non satis nota, ex descriptione et spec. 
(an authentica?) quae vidi in grege V. onobrychoidis collocanda vide- 
tur, et spec. nostro sat bene convenit. In pl. nostra foliola mucronata 
angustiora quam in V. onobrychoide, stipule angustiores, cirri magis 
ramosi, flores equilonge sed tenuiores, calycis dentes longiores. Styli 
barbati nec pubescentes stirpem nostram e grege V. Cracce sejungunt. 
Cel. Boissier in FI. Orientali V. elegantem ad var. V. varie reduxit, et 
sp. Gussonianam in grege V. Cracce collocavit. 
V. ALTISSIMA (Desf. Fl. Ati. ii. 163). 
Mar. sept.—Tanger (Webb Herb.)! 
Ar. Geog. Italia australis cum insulis. Dalmatia. Africa borealis. 
V. Bprrvora (Desf. Fl. Atl. ii. 166, tab. 197; DC. Pr. ii. 360). 
Mar. sept.—Inter Tetuan et Ceuta! 
Ar. Geog. Africa borealis. 
Speciminibus paucifloris V. pseudocracce, Bert., simil!s; sed preter 
alias notas V. biflora gaudet stylo apice circumcirea hirsuto, dum in V’. 
pseudocracca stylus ad latus inferius apice barbatus. 
Planta nostra a typo Fontanesiano paululum variat. Folia glabres- 
centia, parce pilosa, apice longiuscule cirrata, 3-6-juga; foliola 
sepius 10, seepe alterna, oblongo-elliptica, mucronulata;  stipule 
semisagittate lobo unilaterali limbum subequante; pedunculi se- 
pissime biflori, aristati, foliis fere dimidio breviores; calycis breviter 
pilosi dentes inzequales, inferiores subulati tubo zquilongi, superiores 
breves triangulares ; vexillum carina paullolongius. Flores in pedun- 
culo rarius 3 vel 1. 
V. biflora (Webb, Phyt. Can. tab. 65, B) est species aliena=V. albicans, 
Lowe. 
V. euauca (Presi, Del. Prag.i.37; Moris, Fl. Sard. i. 565, tab. 60 ; 
Walp. Rep. i. 713), var. RERAYENSIS (Ballin Journ. Bot. 1873, 339). 
Primo intuitu a typo parum differt floribus mimoribus pallide lilacinis, 
carina apice atropurpurea. Notas differentiales graviores video in 
calyce valde ineequali, dentibus inferioribus subulatis tubo longioribus, 
superioribus vix tubum dimidium zquantibus. 
Mar. merid.—In regione superiore Atlantis Majoris. In convalle Ait 
Mesan a 2400 m. ad 2600 m.! In jugo Tagherot specimen legerunt 
ell. R. et Fr. hodie in herb. Kew conservatum ! 
Legumen immaturum pilosiusculum. In spec. ex Sicilia et Algeria 
video suturam leguminis pilosam. 
Legumina in spec. a Tagherot quam in typo paululum latiora. Semina 
4-6 ferunt. 
Ar. Geog. V. glauca est species Africe borealis, in Europa nonnisi in 
insulis Sicilis et Sardinia detecta.
