Fruticosa, usque ad 1 m. alta. Ramis adscendenti-ereetis, patule glanduloso-hirtis. Foliis 

 longe petiolatis, a basi cordata vel rotundata plerumque integris ovatis (interdum ad basin laminae lobulis 

 binis parvis auctis), obtusis, minute crenulatis, rugulosis, pubescentibus ; floralibus subsessilibus, diminutis, 

 acuminatis. Floribus racemosis vel paniculatis, verticillastris 2 — 8-floi'is, remotis. Bracteis parvis submem-

 dentibus .3 labii superioris minutis, intermedio breviore obtuso, lateralibus acutis; dentibus 2 labii iuferioris 

 triangulari-lanceolatis, acutis, ad 4 mm. longis. Corolla pallide rosea calyee vix duplo longiore. 



A distinct subspecies, which may perhaps appear to be a good species. From the typical S. gran- 

 (lifiura Etling. it may be easily distinguished by its smaller, less proti'acted leaves with almost rounded 

 apex, its considerably smaller calyxes, the shoiiness of the coi'olla, and especially by the glutinose hispid- 

 ncss of the stem and branches. Boissier has first observed, that the Cyprian plant is different from the 

 type of .S', grandiflora, but the name used by him in Sintenis' and Rigo's "Iter cyprium" cannot be 

 maintained, as our plant is also different from that one collected in Lycia by E. Bourgeau (vidi in Herb. 

 Boiss.), to which he gas given the same name. The latter plant has larger calyxes and corolla's, and the 

 stem is canescent as in the genuine S. grancliflora. I have, therefore, given a new name to the Cyprian 

 plant and have called it after ray honoured teacher and former chief, prof. Dr. N. Wille at Kristiania.
