My plants appertain to var. orbicularis! Delile (PL d'Egypt., pi. 64, fig. 2), which seems to be 

 much more widely distributed than the same author's xax. pentayona (1 c, pi. 64, fig. 1). Typical specimens 

 of the latter variety I have in the herbarium of Boissieb only seen from a few localities in northern 

 Africa, all materials from Arabia, Syria, Beloutchistan etc—as well as the greater part of those from 

 African ground— belonging to var. orbicularis. — Concerning the two planches 63 and 64 in Delile's 

 work, which are very rare and missing in most copies and to which he has not published any text, may 

 be referred to Baebey's "Herborisations en Levant", p. 175 — 176, and Ascherson and Schweinfdrth's 

 Illustration de la flore d'Egypte, p. 18.3 — 185. In Baebey's book is also published a photographical 

 reproduction of both planches. 



Only found in drifting sand near the sea-shore between Limassol and Amathus (JH 644).')
