These are pretty herbaceous plants, with the habit of Astragalus. 1593. Oxytropis. From oξuς, pointed, and τρoπiς, a keel. A genus entirely resembling Astragalus in habit; but considered distinct by modern botanists. 1594. Astragalus. This was a name given by the Greeks to one of their leguminous plants, but it is not known to which. The modern genus is composed of plants, the greater number of which are very orna- ORDER IV.

A. glycyphyllos is the largest of the European species. The leaves are sweet, with a mixture of bitterness, and do not seem to be agreeable to cattle; at least the plant, in its wild state, is left untouched; otherwise it might have been desirable to cultivate it. A. Tragacantha was formerly considered as the plant yielding the gum Tragacanth of but that it was generally procured from A. verus.

It is probable that both species, and perhaps some others, yield this gum. A. verus is a native of the north or or or depressed or Lion's-tail or small-Spanish or Chinese-annual or 10703 hypoglóttis W. 10704 austríacus W. 10705 fruticósus W. 10706 arenárius W. 10707 leucophæ'us W. 10708 depréssus W. 10709 leontínus Jac. 10710 Glaux W. 10711 sínicus W.
