217. Note on Linaria spuria and L. Elatine. Having lately gathered some very 

 luxuriant plants of Linaria spuria, which grew in abundance with L. Elatine, I 

 was induced to try if I could find any character whereby to distinguish them without 

 taking into consideration the leaves and spur ; and my specimens present the follow- 

 ing apparently constant distinctions. 



L. spuria. Peduncles closely downy : calyx-segments ovate, longer than the capsule. 



L. Elatine. Peduncles glabrous : calyx-segments ovate, acuminate, with a dia- 

 phanous margin reaching half way up, calyx as long as the capsule. — Wm. Mitten ;
