PINARDIA. 
459 
cylindric equably 10-ribbed. Recept. convex hemispherical 
alveolate smooth. 
Not by any means abundant enough in Mad. to become a 
troublesome corn-weed, as sometimes in England. Indeed the 
preceding sp. rather more commonly takes its place. 
A single pi. occurred once (July 8th 1839) in a cornfield 
a little below the Quinta de Lemos at S. Antonio near Fun- 
chal, which (according to m)^ notes at the time), “with the 
fleshy amplexicaul merely inciso -toothed and jagged (not bi- 
pinnatipartite or finely divided) 1. of C. segetum L., had. the ray 
pale sulphur, with the base only of the ligules golden-y. like 
the disk, exactly as in the common PS. subvar. of Pinardia 
coronaria (L.).” The spec, having since been entirely de- 
stroyed by insects, I am unable to speak positively; but I in- 
cline the rather to refer it to C. segetum L., though I can find 
no record of such variation in the fl. of that sp., because in 
1839, and indeed till within the last 2 or 3 years, Pinardiu 
coronaria (L.) had never otherwise occurred in Madeira.
