Specimen in fruit, without radical leaves: principal measure¬ 
ments approximately— petiole of lower leaves up to 8 cm.; of upper 
3 5 cm. ; leaflets up to 5 cm. X 6 mm. ; rays of umbel 15-3 cm. ; 
pedicels 5 mm. 
Belongs to the subgenus Eupimpinella of Drude, section Trayo- 
selinnm, and is nearly allied to P. Buchanani Wolff. It is, how¬ 
ever, readily distinguished from that plant by its much longer rays—• 
nearly double as long—and especially by the remarkable hairs and 
honeycombed upper surface of the leaves, whence the name.
