269.— Annual. Stems slender, erect, 2-din. high, sparingly 
branched from the base; branches ascending, more or less clothed 
with short crisp glandular pubescence. Leaves in remote opposite 
pairs, }-4in. long, ovate or rhomboid-ovate, subacute, cuneate at 
the base, furnished with 2-3 rather large teeth on each side, 
both surfaces more or less glandular-pubescent, margins reflexed. 
Flowers few towards the tips of the branches, sessile or very 
shortly peduncled, nearly $in. long, bright-yellow. Calyx oblong- 
campanulate, 4-lobed to the middle, lobes subacute. Corolla-tube 
longer than the calyx; upper lip 2-lobed, lobes entire ; lower lip 
3-lobed, lobes emarginate. Capsule broadly oblong, included in 
the enlarged calyx, glabrous or nearly so.—E. Berggreni, Wettst.

The only species yet recognised in New Zealand with the flowers wholly 
yellow. Except in the colour of the flowers and in the larger corolla it hardly 
differs from some states of HE. zealandica. 
5. BH. zealandica, Wetist. Monog. Huphr. 264, t. vi. f. 480-435, 
and t. xiv. f. 10.—Annual. Stems slender, erect, 1-4in. high, 
much or sparingly branched from the base, or in depauperated 
specimens simple, more or less bifariously pubescent with short 
crisp white hairs; branches spreading or ascending, sometimes 
prostrate. Leaves in distant opposite pairs, sessile, 4-tin. long, 
ovate, obtuse or subacute, cuneate at the base, furnished with 2—4 
rather large teeth on each side, both surfaces glandular-pubescent, 
margins reflexed. Flowers few towards the tips of the branches, 
sessile or very shortly pedicelled, }+4in. long, white; peduncles 
elongating in fruit. Calyx oblong-campanulate, 4-lobed ; lobes 
usually shorter than the tube. Corolla-tube scarcely longer than 
the calyx ; upper lip short, arched, 2-lobed; lower lip 3-lobed ; 
all the lobes entire. Capsule broad, almost orbicular, scarcely 
exceeding the enlarged calyx; seeds several in each cell.—
