32. A. glomerata, Hutchinson in Kew Bulletin, 1911, 229. A 

 slender erect branched herb ; stem often woody towards the base, 

 subterete, sulcate, crisped-pubescent with short hairs and often with 

 numerous gland-tipped hairs intermixed. Leaves ovate-elliptic or 

 rhomboid-elliptic, obtuse or subacute, cuneate at the base, 1-2J in. 

 long, J-lJin. broad, crenate, membranous, setulose-pubescent on both 

 surfaces, 5-nerved at the base, remaining lateral nerves 3-4 on each 

 side, prominent on both surfaces ; tertiary nerves rather lax, more or 

 less parallel, distinct below; petiole as long as or longer than the 

 leaves, pubescent; stipules subulate, small, pilose. Flowers monoecious, 

 arranged as in ^. crenata, but more crowded and mostly gathered in 

 clusters at the ends of the branches. Female bracts crowded, foliaceous, 

 suborbicular or almost reniform, about IJ lin. long and 2 lin. broad, 

 8-10-toothed, teeth triangular, with several long gland-tipped hairs on 

 the inner side of their margin, and sometimes on the outside, with as 

 many nerves as teeth, pubescent outside, nearly glabrous within. 

 Sepals 3, ovate-lanceolate, acute, ciliate. Ovary trilobed, setose- 

 pubescent in the upper two-thirds with gland- tipped hairs intermixed ; 

 styles very slender, rather short, divided almost to the base. Seeds 

 ovoid-ellipsoid, minutely pitted, scarcely | lin. long. — A. crenata, var. 

 glandulosa, Mlill. Arg. in Linnaea, xxxiv. 43, and in DC. Prodr. xv. ii.
