"2 branched, v branches flattened with 2 deep fork lines to very firm, dark green v shining above, lighter but hardly disconceinias beneath, sessile, entire, ovate, rounded (not at all cordate) of lance v bluntish at apex; the largest now 4.3 x 20 mm. On the plate (now) 1-3 capsules, 8mm (pedicels) overall on pedicels 1.3 mm (or more). Capsules with many fine long- itudinal ridges, 3 celled, with anbilate tips (styles) 2½ mm. Electric light v microscope (20x) shows the transparent dots plainly & plentifully. 6-6-32 Ranunculus sardous Crantz Kut 491, Bott II, Costa I 27 = R. feliclonotus Petz. Bas 1/8, Bas 8.
