shorter leaves varying from slightly incurved to somewhat re- 

 curved, some specimens showing almost straight leaves, while 

 P. echinula has regularly, much incurved, leaves. 



Flower heads are not so dense, bracts are not divided into- 

 long spreading subulate points, and the calyx is pubescent without 

 acuminate lobes. The bracteoles are linear, slightly keeled, and 

 hairy, while P. echinula has glabrous bracteoles, triangular,, 

 acuminate, at the base somewhat clasping the pedicel. The 

 petals are all yellow, and the ovary is silky villous, not glabrous 

 as in P. echinula. The pod is nearly 3 lines long, and 2 lines 

 broad, oblique ovate, somewhat flat, and scantily beset with long 

 hairs. 



Its position is between P. Bauerleni, F.v.M., and P. echinula.. 

 It bears much resemblance to the former in leaves, stipules, and 

 inflorescence, but its calyx is very different, and the bracteoles 

 are very small, whereas those of P. Bauerleni are broad and 

 nearly 4 lines long.
