— Herb. ann. PS. r eg. 2, c ; ND. 1, r. — Sandy cornfields and 
waste ground towards the Fonte d’Area in PS., Apr., May; 
ND. near the ruined house, June, but nearly dried up with 
paler smaller fl. and very glaucous whitish foliage. The ach. 
m this ND. pi. appeared “ perfectly smooth and even” (MSS. 
Notes) when fresh gathered. They are minutely but evidently 
verruculose and rugulose, or tuberculated with little flat pimples 
and slightly wrinkled in the dried state. — This is a very trivial 
var. and rather a mere accidental state of a. I found only a 
single spec, in the ND., and unfortunately preserved one only 
of the PS. pi. I cannot therefore vouch for the constancy of 
the foregoing characters, and should not have noticed here the 
form at all, but for its exact agreement on comparison with 
F. Bastardi Bor. of the botanists above quoted. 
y. Iceta ; like a. (1), but of a light y.-gr., not in the least smoky 
or glaucescent ; lfts. more regularly ternate ovate and leaflike ; 
fl. not larger than in a. (1), but handsomer and more brightly 
or distinctly coloured ; sep. quite entire or only sometimes here 
and there indistinctly toothed ; fr. indistinctly and obsoletely 
verruculate. — PS. on the rocky summit of Pico de Facho, Apr. 
May. — Approaches F. capreolata (L.) Koch ; but the sep. though 
mostly entire and rather large and broad are only ^ instead of \ 
the length of the cor., the fr. -stalks are not “ patent or recurved,” 
the fl. are darker full rose-colour and smaller, and the ac-h. 
(entire at the apex as in a.) are exactly orbicular and hence 
only obtuse (as in a. and /3.) not “subtruncate” or “very obtuse.” 
Rac. 8-12- or 15-fl. ; fl. tipped conspicuously with deep purple- 
black. — The true F. capreolata L. has never occurred in either 
PS. or Mad. It is constantly distinct from every state of F. 
muralis by its larger pale fl., large leafy sep. half the length of 
the cor., recurved fr. -stalks, and more obtuse ach. 
** Ripe fr. distinctly verruculate. 
2. F. parviflora Lam. 
Ach. strongly verruculate globose or equably orbicular all round 
with a short minute mucro at the apex ; sep. subovate strongly 
toothed or jagged very minute and inconspicuous not the length 
and not above \ or -i- the breadth of the cor. ; br. narrow- 
oblong usually as long as the short erecto-patent fr. -stalks ; rac. 
nearly sessile short few-flowered ; general and partial leafstalks 
simple not prehensile ; segm. of 1. ternate, their laciniae narrow 
linear-oblong or ligulate acute cuspidate, st. suberect or erecto- 
patent, branches diffusely spreading. — F. parviflora Lam. Diet.
