326 GULPH OF GLAUCUS. 
clouds of mosquitoes, " wheeling their droning 
flioht," sole tenants of the wilderness, with the 
exception of a few rabbits. The aromatic odour 
calyx, and the stigma two-cleft. We have named it Bristly 
Onostna. Onosma setigera. Onosma caule fruticenle, pumilo 
tortuoso ; ramis brevibut hispidis ; foliis lanceolatis, papulosis, setts 
pungentibus asperis ; racemis brevibus ; calycibus dense setosis ; 
coroUd elongatd subeylindricd ; antheris excertis. 
VII. A non-descript species of Trifolium, about nine or ten inches 
long, the stem a little hairy upwards, with few branches, or 
quite simple, the leaflets inversely heart-shaped and toothed ; 
the flowers purple, in short close heads, persisting, and be- 
comiDg rigid ; the standard very large, rounded above, but 
narrowing downwards. The species ought to be arranged near 
the well-known Trifolium spadiceum of Linnaeus, and the Tri- 
foUum speciosum of Professor Willdenow. We have called it 
Trifolium ciliatum. Trifolium annuum,spicis subovatis hemi- 
sphecrisve pmicijloris, co7-olld cariosd majusculd ; petalis denti- 
culatis; calycis dentibus subulads, ciliatis, inaqualihus ; foUolis 
obcordatis denticulatis ; stipuUs ciliatis mojusculis.

Upon the Isle of j^bercrombie, in the mouth of the Gulph, we dis- 
covered, among other very rare plants, the four following entirely 
new species, hitherto undescribed by any author. 
I. A tall non-descript species of Scrophularia, with the leaves 
repeatedly cut and jagged into narrow sharp segments ; the 
pannicle of flowers from one to two feet or more in length, 
with bracts, the lowermost of which are pinnatified, and the 
uppermost ends nearly linear at the subdivisions ; and the 
flowers about as large as in Scrophularia canina. We have 
called it Scrophularia Silaifolia. Scrophularia glabra, foliis 
tripinnatifidis laciniis angustis acutis ; panicula terminali lon- 
gissimo. 
II. A non-descript species of Laserpilium, the lower leaves of 
which are from eight inches to a foot or more in length, and 
from two to three inches across where they are broadest, 
having nearly the general outline of an ostrich feather, except 
in being less flattened, and more attenuated upwards ; their 
segments
