pedicelled. Pedicels 0-5 mm. long, glabrcus. Calyxz-tube 0-5 mm. long, campanulate, % 
glabrous ; lobes 0:25 mm. long, ovate, obtuse, not ribbed. Corolla, with a tube, 0-5 mm. 
long; lobes 2 mm. long, 0-75 mm. broad, oblong, obtuse, slightly inflexed at the apex. 
Filaments connate at the base, 3:5 mm. long, linear, acute at the apex, glabrous; anthers 
scarcely 0:5 mm. long, subglobose, with a minute caducoas gland at the apex. Ovary 
shortly stalked, 1:5 mm. long, linear in outline, glabrous; style 2 mm. long, cylindric ; 
stigma simple. 
This species is readily distinguished from the former by the pabescent pinnules and 
the short, rounded calyx lobes, which are only half as long as the calyx-tube.
