upper ones narrower ; all entire, glabrous, and sometimes remotely- 
ciliated. Flowers racemose. Bracts elliptical-stapshaped, resem- 
bling the upper leaves, much longer than the pedicels. Pedicels 
erect, much shorter than the calyx ; usually thickly clothed with 
gland-tipped hairs. Calyx-segments strapshaped, acute, glabrous, 
ciliated with gland-tipped hairs. Corolla shorter than the calyx. 
Capsule granulated, glandular-pubescent, shorter than the calyx, 
convex on the upper side, gibbous at the base beneath. Seeds 
with a raised line on one face, and a deep irregular pit-like 
furrow on the other, and a ridge running all round between the 
two faces. 
In cornfields in sandy soil. Rather rare or local. In most of 
the counties in the South of England, as far North as Norfolk,

Stem 3 inches to 2 feet high, generally branched from near the 
base, the branches simple. Leaves 1 to 2 inches long, tapering at 
the base and apex; those in the axils of which the flowers are 
produced not distinguishable from the others. Calyx-segments 
variable in length, sometimes more than 1 inch long, resembling the 
leaves, but narrower. Corolla \ to f- inch long, pale-rose streaked 
with darker ; upper lip deeply notched, with the lobes ascending-
