5-3-34 ?? Sieymbrium austriacum Jaeg. Cate
194, Box 24 = S. pyrenaicum Vill & austriacum
3v/6 191 FL. B at dumped by from Villeneuve. This
seemly likely to be the same plant as 6-3-33 and
(anther) moother dese. fits as well as this. Plant 2 ½ ft
high. St. globose & glaucous, look simple but branch-
esses starting in all ff axils. Root v basal lv (if any)
not coll. has dark gray-green, smooth/ blue calyptra
to touch. The lighter mid-nerves conspicuous.
Segments of lf broad based v triangular or lanceo-
lote ± runcinate. The upper lvs with 10-2 pairs
rather conspicuously narrow lance-linear
downward curved segments. Fls def yellow
same shade as Eriocaulum obtusangulum. Pedicels
slender, to 6mm in fl v 10 mm in very young fls. Sepals
yellower, slightly spreading (but not the longitudals
as in E. ob —), the latteria hardly accute at base
but broad at apex with a very slight obtuse horn
(broad of tip) with 2 very short hairs on lorn. Petals
to 2 ¼ mm long, not abruptly narrowed into claw.
Fists too young to study but already spreading curved
downward suggesting plant of 6-3-33. Style (in fl/)
1mm long v ½ (a slightly less) mm thick. 2 Stigma circular
disk 1mm diam very slightly 2-lobed [5-25-34 same
apost llldest & now 23 moed. This is surely same as
6-3-33 whatever that was.
