Boiss. Diagn. Ser. 1, v. 13, and Fl. Orient. iv. 632 ; a dwarf much-branched hoary undershrub, leaves minute petioled linear pectinately lobed, lobes rounded, margins revolute, whorls 2-3-fld. on very slender spikes, flowers minute., calyx hispid with long hairs.
SCINDE ; on the Boogtie Hills, Vicary.—DISTRIB. Affghanistan, Persia.
The specimens are flowerless and very insufficient, but I think referable to this curious little species. The calyx resembles that of S. oegyptiaca, var. pumila. Floral leaves persistent, elliptic, acute, 1/10 in. long.
