Our V. sax - the largest is (2 x 4 mm) and teeth some-
times more distinct than in our V. sax.-
(But on many sts the two V. fruits & V. sax are
so nearly alike as to be of no help in ident.)
V. fruct- is gland-pubescent on pedicels, calyx &c
but in one plant of V. sax there is gland-pubescence
only somewhat slighter (See SVKI). Distinguishing pt.
on 7-5-31 not helpful.
