Contracts v the number I say leaves no other
possibility. Ivs. are the same as in (A)
7-18-33 f. Medicago falcata L. Cote I 322, Box 74, BVH
III, BVH II #/33, 4516, SVI 396 FL. Rystation. Bouveret.
Ident as satisfactory as poso. without fs. Decumbent,
almost woolly with matiny wide spreading (decumbent)
branches. Ifs narrowly oblong 10x4 mm., somewhat
narrowed toward base, leuculate at top, the tip
being cistele, with a sublate projecting tip (very
evident to eye). Stipules & decuate at base well a long
sublate tip. Stems finely pubescent. Fls 7-8 mm. before
standard assumes erect position), lemon-yellow with
a few brownish lines at base [lemb.] standard. Wings
spreading to almost the obtuse keel. Calyx teeth equal,
acute, as long as tube (2-2 1/2 mm.). Stamen tube
unexpectedly firm, the (9) stamens united until
near tip. Style at base, flattened sideways under the
vary. Ovary (as fl folds) very densely pubescent
hirsute. Ivs fr also enough to allow side lobes but
looks as though it might later be a sill (Cote).
[9-2-33 Plants from same place has pods acute form,
not quite a pronounced do in Cote's lower figure.
Only few pods forming]
