The occurrence of this Ebenus in the Marmarica is phytogeo- 

 graphically very interesting. The genus is entirely absent in 

 Egypt and Syria, and the nearest congener is found in Crete. 

 This, E. cretica, L., is at the same time more closely allied to 

 E. Armitagei than any other species. One other species occurs in 

 North Africa, viz., E. pinnatus, Desf., ranging from Morocco to 

 Tunis ; but this represents another type (section Onobrychioides, 

 Jaub. & Spach).
