Euphrasia.| SCROPHULARINEA, 557 
long; peduncles slender, exceeding the leaves, sometimes + in. long. 
Calyx 4-lobed to about 4-way down; lobes flat, erect, acute. 
Corolla-tube slender, curved, more than twice as long as the calyx ; 
upper lip short, broad, shortly 2-lobed ; lower lip 3-lobed. Anthers 
glabrous or nearly so. Ovary pubescent; ovules 2 in each cell, 
pendulous. Ripe capsules not seen.—Handb. N.Z. Fl. 221;

A very remarkable little plant, distinguished from the preceding by the 
creeping and rooting habit, smaller remote 3-lobed leaves, longer and narrower 
flowers on longer peduncles, and shorter calyx-lobes. 
10. ANAGOSPERMA, Wettst. 
A small creeping intricately branched herb. Leaves opposite, 
entire or 3-lobed. Flowers solitary and axillary, erect, shortl 
peduncled. Calyx oblong-campanulate, 5-lobed to the middle; 
lobes equal, ovate-lanceolate, acute. Corolla-tube excessively long 
and slender, 1-2 in. long, narrow at the base, gradually expanded 
above ; limb short, 2-lipped; upper lip erect, obcordate, shortly 
2-lobed; lower lip rather shorter, spreading or deflexed, 3-lobed. 
Stamens 4, didynamous; anthers large, almost as long as the 
lower lip of the corolla, mucronate at the base. Ovary small, 
broadly ovoid, 2-celled; ovules solitary, pendulous from the top of 
the cell. Style slender; stigma circinately incurved. Capsule 
broadly obcuneate, much broader than long, loculicidally dehiscent, 
compressed. Seeds one in each cell, large, oblong, pendulous. 
A very remarkable monotypic genus, confined to New Zealand. It is 
closely allied to Huphrasia, but differs in the extraordinary length of the 
corolla-tube, in the solitary ovules, and in the broad obcuneate capsule.

—Stems very slender, weak, procumbent and matted, 2-4 in. long. 
sparsely glandular-pubescent. Leavesin rather reinote pairs, sessile 
or nearly so, 4-+ in. long, ovate-lanceolate, acuminate, narrowed to 
the base, entire or deeply 3-lobed, 3-nerved, glabrous or glandular- 
pubescent. Flowers on short curved peduncles, erect. Corolla 
about 4—-2in. long when first expanded, but elongating as the 
flowering advances and often becoming 2 in. long, very many times 
longer than the small calyx. Capsule 4-$in. long, very much 
broader than long.—Euphrasia longiflora, Kirk in Trans. N.Z.
