 Austr. iv. 76. A glabrous or sparingly pubescent perennial, with a tufted stock 

 emitting stems or stolons at first sometimes erect but usually prostrate, and all 

 leafless except a terminal tuft, which often roots and becomes a new plant. 

 Leaves radical or in the terminal tufts petiolate, linear spathulate or narrow 

 oblong, entire or rarely pinnatifid, often several inches long. Peduncles or 

 scapes 1-flowered, slender, rarely as long as the leaves, without bracteoles or 

 rarely with very minute ones at the base. Calyx-lobes variable, usually unequal. 

 Corolla yellow, glabrous or hairy outside, under ^in. long. Dissepiment of the 

 ovary reaching above the middle. Capsule obovoid, about 3 lines long. Seeds 

 several, flat, winged, 



Hab.: Southern inland localities. 



25. G. glauca (glaucous), F. v. M. in Trans. Vict. Inst. 1855, 40 ; Benth. 

 Fl. A ustr. iv. 76. A perennial glabrous and glaucous in the typical form, silky- 

 hairy in a common variety, with a slender creeping rootstock and ascending or 

 erect stems, scarcely exceeding 6in. in most specimens, sometimes densely tufted. 

 Radical leaves oblong-lanceolate or linear-lanceolate, entire or rarely with a few 

 prominent teeth, 1 to 3in. long ; stem-leaves linear or linear-lanceolate, entire. 

 Peduncles 1-flowered, longer than the leaves, without bracteoles. Flowers rather 

 large, yellow. Calyx-lbbes narrow, acute. Corolla nearly glabrous outside, 

 nearly fin. long, the 2 upper lobes separate low down, unequally winged and 

 auriculate. Dissepiment of the ovary short. Indusium glabrous. Capsille 

 globular, about 3 lines long. Seeds few, large, flat, with a broad not very thin 

 wing.

26. G. Armitiana (after W. E. Armit), F. v. M. Fragm. x. 110. A perennial 

 9 to 12in. high, almost glabrous. Leaves entire, slightly canaliculate, the lower ones 

 1^^ to 2-J^in. long, and about 1 line brqad, the upper ones shorter and narrower. 

 Peduncles in the axils of the upper leaves, clusters of few in the axils lower 

 down, all filiform, about lin. long. Calyx-tube very short, segments linear- 

 subulate about 1^ line long, glandular pubescent oiilside. Corolla about 3 lines 

 long, the 3 inferior ones minutely winged at the apex, not bearded, the ilpper 

 segments scarious-auriculate at the top dnd with bearded margins. • Filaments 

 very narrow ; anthers ovate-oblong, style somewhat thick, short, and the indusium 

 sericeo-villous. Capsule almost superior, scarcely 3 lines long, sometimes 

 almost round, shortly apiculate, septum very short. Seeds pale-yellow, 8 or 

 fewer, somewhat broadly winged, punctulate.

27. Ct. paniculata (flowers in panicles), Sm. in Trans. Linn. Soc. ii. 348 ; 

 Benth. Fl. Amtr. iv. 78. A perennial, more or leas hirsute or rarely glabrous, 

 with a tufted stock and erect stems of 1 to 2ft. Eadical leaves petiolate, from 

 obovate to narrow-lanceolate, irregularly toothed or rarely entire, 1 to 2in. long 

 when broad, often twice that length when narrow ; stem-leaves few and much 

 smaller, the floral ones reduced to linear bracts. Flowers yellow, in a loose, 

 terminal panicle, the primary branches racemose, the secondary cymose, the 

 flowers all pedicellate within the small, linear bracts. Calyx-lobes subulate, 

 short. Corolla about ^in. long, glandular-pubescent outside, with longer simple 

 hairs intermixed. Capsule about 2 lines long, the dissepiment" reaching nearly 

 to the top. Seeds numerous and very small, but orbicular and flattened. — E.
