■ A species easily recognised by the large white petals (but H. f. & T. say red ?). 

 Sepals not oyate in Var. pauciflorum, but as in the typical Unearifolium. — ^Edgeworth's 

 S. mwyronatwrn is identically his S. paiiciflormn as shown by H.' f. & T.

14. S. trifidum, Wall. Cat. 7230 ; stems 3-11 in. glabrous, leaves 2-4 

 in. petioled oblong sinuate-pinnatifid, or 1-2-pinnatifi.d with linear blunt lobes,

 on rocks and on trees. 



Cymes leafy. Flowers pedicelled, pink. Follicles when ripe very thin-waUed. — A 

 well-marked abundant species in which however the leaves vary between the wide 

 limits given above.

 Edgeworth, &c. — Disteib. Affghanistan. 



Stem glabrous, more rarely glandular-pubescent. Rosulate leaves J-1 J in. spa- 

 thulate or elongate obovate. Cymes weak, straggling, often subsecund or subscor-

Eosulate leaves ^-Ij in. spathulate or elongate obovate. Cymes lax with pedicels 

 1-1 in. long, often with two or more erect elongate branches. Follicles thin-walled,
