We have seen no specimens of vur. ft., but it does not seem to 
differ in any essential points from the more common forms. 
1 Mr. Bentham and others have divided this genus into several, which we do 
not consider necessary to adopt in a local Bora, where, we have only one repre- 
sentative of each : they are — 
1. Bartsia. Seeds numerous, large, transverse, longitudinally ribbed or 
winged at the back. (B. alpina.) 
2. Eufragia. Seeds very numerous and minute, erect, slightly angular, ob- 
scurely striate. (B .viscosa.) 
3. Odontites. Seeds numerous, somewhat angular, longitudinally furrowed, 
pendulous. (B. Odontites.) 
The last has been united to Euphrasia by Mr Babington.
