Coulter (1. c.) has united with 

 this species a quite different Spanish plant, 

 P. diandrns Lag., which has caused great 

 confusion in the synonymy of both. Bois- 

 siEK (1. c.) will preserve the name of P. 

 2)ai)2)osus for the Spanish plant, but as 

 Linnaeus indicates his Scabiosa papposa to 

 grow in Crete only, Halacsy must be right 

 in maintaining, that the Oriental species is yio 

 the true S. papposa L.
