 Benth. Fl. Austr. iv. 74. Annual or with a perennial tufted or creeping rootstock, 

 tomentose-pubescent or softly villous and often glandular. Eadical leaves on long 

 petioles, obovate or oblong, coarsely toothed, 1 to 2 or even Sin. long. Stems either 

 very short and erect or decumbent, or ascending and from 6in. to 1ft. long, with a 

 few leaves usually crowded towards the end or scattered when the stems are much 

 lengthened, all smaller, narrower, and more entire than the radical ones and 

 nearly sessile. Peduncles in the upper axils or terminal tufts, 1-flpwered, without 

 bracteoles or rarely with very minute ones. Calyx hirsute, the lobes narrow. 

 Corolla yellow, pubescent outside, 6 to 7 lines long, the tubes sometimes forniing 

 a minute spur at the base of the calyx, the two uppfer lobes deeply separated, 

 unequally winged and auriculate (lobes bilobed, F: v. M. Fragm. xi. 56). 

 Diseepiment of the ovary very short or almost rudimentary, with few ovules. 

 Capsule orbicular or shortly ovate. Seeds large, orbicular, flat, usually black

21. Cr. pinnatifida (leaves pinnatifid), Schlecht. Linnaa, xxi. 440 ; Benth. 

 Fl. Amtr. iv. 76. A perennial, sprinkled with appressed hairs or nearly glabrous, 

 the rootstock tufted or creeping. Eadical leaves petiolate, oblong-spathulate or 

 narrow, deeply toothed or pinnatifid or a few of the outermost obovate and crenate, 

 often 2 to Sin. long. Stems ascending or erect, ^ to 1ft. long, with narrow 

 entire or pinnatifid leaves, few and distant or sometimes clustered at the ends of 

 the stems. Peduncles very long, axillary, 1-flowered, without bracteoles or rarely 

 with very minute ones at the base. Flowers rather large, yellow. Calyx-lobes 

 linear or linear-lanceolate. Corolla sprinkled with rigid appressed hairs, ^ to fin. 

 long- in the smaller forms, ^ to lin. in the larger ones, the lower lobes often 

 eiliate below ■ the wings, the upper .ones deeply separated, with a broad concave 

 auricle on the outer side. Dissepiment of the ovary short, but the ovules rather 

 numerous. Capsules nearly orbicular, 3 to 4 lines long. Seeds few, large, very

' 2-2.- Cr. pusilliflora (little flowers), F. v. il/. Key to Syst. Vict. PL i. 354. 

 Annual scantily beset with spreading hairs, the lower leaves crowded, pinnatifid 

 or at times shortly lobed, .the stem-leaves only present at the inflorescence and
