Variety. 



^ t V. {L.) 11. 2 squamatum ; V. squamatum 



Willd. Enum. (Wats. Dend. Brit., t. 24-.; 



and our fig. 943.) ; has the surface, mid- 

 ribs, and petioles of the 

 leaves scaly (whence 

 its name), and their 

 margins crenate, sub- 

 dentate. The pedun- 

 cles and pedicels are 

 also covered with 

 minute ferruginous 

 scales ; and the leaves 

 are smaller, and of a 

 bluer green than those 

 Oi V. niidum. 



Sir W. J. Hooker says of this species, that he cannot satisfy himself of 

 Ipermanently distin;.'uishing characters between it and V. Lentago and V. juru- 

 nifoliuni. We think all the four varieties of the same form.
