SCROPHULARINEJS 327 



Cotyledons orbicular, foliaceous, emarginate, with a glandular 

 mucro in the sinus, trinerved from the petiole to the apex where the 

 lateral nerves unite with the midrib immediately below the mucro, 

 with a few indistinct reticulations outside and inside of the strong 

 laterals, glabrous, dark green above, paler beneath ; lamina 1-2 mm. 

 long, and as wide ; petiole slender, semiterete, channelled above, 

 subperfoliate, hairy, pale green, about 1'7 cm. long. 



Stem erect, more or less quadrangular, with obtuse angles, pale 

 green, densely hairy or subvillous ; 1st internode 1'5 cm. long. 



Leaves simple, cauline, opposite, exstipulate, petiolate, densely 

 hairy on both surfaces, trinerved from the base in the seedling, light 

 green ; petiole short, channelled above, densely hairy. 



First pair rotund, obtuse, cordate at the base,crenate-dentate with 

 obtuse teeth tipped with a glandular mucro, trinerved from the petiole 

 to the apex, with the primary lateral nerves running into a tooth on 

 each side of the apical one, and short lateral branches running into 

 the other teeth from the primary lateral nerves. 



Ultimate leaves rotund-reniform or reniform, five- to seven- 

 nerved, obtusely five- to seven-toothed, rarely nine-toothed, coarsely 

 hairy on both surfaces but not glandular ; teeth tipped with a glan- 

 dular mucro. Bracts similar to the leaves and not much smaller, 

 falling short of the peduncles. 



Fruit didymous, turgid and furrowed along the midrib of the 

 carpels, not carinate, densely hairy but not glandular, with a sunk 

 cavity at the apex in which the persistent style is situated, two-celled, 

 each cell two-seeded. 



Pedicularis sp. 



Boot small, yellowish, with a few rootlets and root-hairs. 



Hypocotyl 5 mm. long, '5 mm. thick, terete ; hairs purplish- 

 red. 



Cotyledons equal, 4 mm. long including the glandular-ciliate, 

 purplish petiole, 2 mm. wide, ovate, rounded at the base, obtuse at 

 the apex, entire, obscurely nerved, glandular-ciliate, thin, purplish. 



Stem with the primary internodes undeveloped. 



Leaves simple, once, twice, or still further pinnately cut, radical 

 and cauline, apparently opposite in the seedling, exstipulate, petio- 

 late, with venation conforming to the divisions, hairy. 



First pair oblong-ovate, shallowly pinnatifid with rounded serru- 

 late lobes, 1 cm. long including the petiole, and 4 mm. wide.
