 Agardh had seen a specimen of L. ornatus in the herbarium 

 of Lindlev, and indicates the relationship by placing it just be- 

 fore L. leucopsii. He indicates that leucopsis is more pubescent, 

 has fewer leaflets lanceolate instead of obovate-linear, equaling 

 the petiole instead of only half the length; shorter stipules; the 

 racemes denser, imperfectly verticillate; the outside of the ban- 

 ner less pubescent, and the pods more pubescent. 



Among specimens sent to Miss Eastwood for comparison 

 with the types in England was my iorj8, collected along the 

 river bank at Pendleton, Oregon, June 3, 1910. She reported 

 that it is L. leucopsis, "but not a synonym."
