I had already, when seeing the single leaf preserved in the Paris herbarium, and described as simply 

 pinnate, suspected that it was one only of the two pinnae of a more compound leaf j and tliis view is now 

 confirmed by the inspection of Willdenow*s specimen, in which the very short common petiole remains 

 attached, and shows the scar of the corresponding opposite pinna.
