Goldbachia hispida Blatt. & Hall. spec. nov. Herba annua (?) glauca, 20 cm alta, a basi ramosissima, radice simplici, caule striato glabriusculo. Folia radicalia petiolata spathulata integra 4 cm longa, caulina oblanceolata — obtusa vel linearia obtusa basi breviter auri- culata, margine remote et breviter hispido, costa media inferiore prominente. Flores racemos terminales ebracteatos, multiflores laxos formantes, minimi, (petalis roseis uti videtur) ; pedicelli ca 2 mm longi, floribus subaequilongi, filiformes, fructificantes incrassati reflexi 5 mm longi. Siliqua unilocularis indehiscens, monosperma 6 mm longa, vel disperma 9 mm longa, inter semina contracta, coriacea turgidal 2 mm lata basi attenuata, apice in stylum trian- gularem planum obtusum contracta, cujus margines decurrunt secus siliquce latera ; facies siliquos costa media plus minusve distincta ornatoe, interdum prominenter reticulata? et bituberculatae si siliqua est monosperma, vel tetratuberculatae si siliqua est disperma ; tuber- culis presentibus constrictio inter semina minus distincta. Semina anguste oblonga, subcylindrica, faciebus oppositis sulcata. — This species differs from Goldbachia laevigata in the following points : The margin of the leaves is hispid, the siliqua is sometimes 1-seeded, never 3-seeded, the siliqua shows distinct dimorphism. Note : As there is no doubt that this species belongs to the genus Goldachia, a slight change in De Candolle's diagnosis of the genus should be made. He says that there are 2 or 3 cells in the siliqua, superimposed in one row. According to the present knowledge of the genus we must say that there are 1-3 cells in the siliqua. Loc. : Harbud, about 55 miles E of Panjgur, about 3,700 ft. (no. 247 A). Fl. and fr. in April 1918, Vern, Name : Kularbahar (Bal.).
