This sp. is closely allied to S. foetida L. Franchet in his 

 work citied above states the two species only differ in the 

 size of flowers. I notice corolla does not exceed 7mm in height 

 in 5. Democritea, w^hile it attains 10 mm. in S. foetida. In the 

 tj'pical form, 5. Democritea has the corolla onh' twice as high 

 as calyx, and the lateral nerves of its leaves are 5 or more on 

 each side. In 5. foetida the corolla is usually 3 times as high 

 as calyx, and the lateral nerves of the leaves are less in 

 number. However, we often meet with the specimens of 5. 

 Democritea which are transitional to S. foetida in the nervation 

 of leaves.
