The {talk is about five or fix inches long and pro- 

 ftrate. The leaves are not ablblutely without 

 pellucid dots, but are obfcurely perforated. The 

 flowers do not form an umbel, but grow fingle

 leaves. The calyx is ferrated, and fprinkled 

 with black fpots or glands, particularly on the 

 edges. In other refpedts it differs little from the 

 preceding.
