14. Hordeum intermedium nudimortoni var. novo. This variety was selected 
from the progeny of a hybrid of ha.rtoni and nigrimtdum. It is constant, and 
with the other new forms described later is included here in order that the 
list of principal varieties may be complete. It is a variety of intermedium 
with black, naked kernels, lemmas of the central florets awned, outer glumes 
narrow, and spike lax and nodding.

17. Hordeum distlclion palmella var. novo. In the common 2-rowed barleys 
there has apparently been no name used in recent years to include zeocriton, 
erectum, and nutans. Each of these has such a definite and specific use as a 
subvarietal name that it can hardly be used to include the others. Jean des 
Moulins in 1615, in the French edition of the work of Dalechamps (p. 333), 
divided the barleys into two species, poly'sticlion and distichon. The latter he 
called j)omole. Olivier de Serres, writing the same year (p. 99), used the 
terms paumes and paumoules for the same barleys. The pomole of that date 
was nearly identical with the group here designated palmella. Pomole, with 
various spellings, as paumoule, pa^nelle, etc., is still applied popularly to the 
common 2-rowed barleys in France. The name palmella is here used in 
preference, as the Latin equivalent of palm, or little palm, doubtless referring 
to the appearance of the spike.
