J5. Hilarionis Post in Mem. Herb. Boiss. No. 18, 90 (1900). B. cretica Boiss. Pl. orient. Suppl. 66, quoad plantani 

 cjfpriani, et probab. Kotschy, Cypern, 382; non Lam. 



Very different from B. macrocarpa Guss., a Sicilian species, with which it is said by Post to be 

 related. B. macrocarpa has thick oblong pods, reminding of those of Raphanns sativits, with smooth 

 surface and very thick almost ligneous valves, and in its conical rostrum there is one seed — or according 

 to LojACONO PcjEEo (Fl. Sicul. I, 115) sometimes even 2. B. Hilarionis seems to me to be much closer 

 related with B. cretica Lam., and perhaps it might be considered as a subspecies of that plant. When 

 it is here preliminarily arranged as a distinct species, it is chiefly on account of the characters obtained 

 from its fruits. Its most important differences from B. cretica Lam. are as follows: 



B. cretica Lam. B. Hilarionis Post. 



Fetalis luteis. Fetalis pallide roseis vel albis (ex descr. Postii).

Fissures of rocks on the northern mountain-range: Buffavento (UK 397!), Pentadaktylos (SR 631), 

 Hag. Hilarion (Post, JH 820). Kotschv's specimens from Buffavento have too young fruits to be quite 

 surely determinated, but still there can hardly be any doubt, that they belong to this species. — Endemical 

 on the island.
