Very close to L. Whytei Skan, but a weaker growing plant and 

 almost entirely glabrous. The chief differences are to be found in 

 the more deeply divided nearly glabrous (not pubescent) calyces, 

 and in the somewhat smaller golden (not purple) corollas with 

 smaller and slightly different lobes. This is the plant alluded to by 

 Mr. Skan (op. cit.) under L. Whytei.

There is some doubt about this determination. The specimens 

 differ from the type in being smaller and weaker plants with 

 smaller leaves (usually about 0-2 cm. long) and a somewhat shorter 

 and broader calyx, and a slighter smaller corolla. J. Muddii was 

 described from Transvaal material.
