Bunium ^ is also among those plants which intimately connect Garum with Pim- pinella. Those called Bunioides^ have numerous vittse, and thereby are connected with the latter. Those, on the other hand, as Bulbocastanum,'' which have solitary vittse in each furrow, approach much nearer to Garum proper. Elvendia ^ is inseparable from the Buniums with soHtary vittse, as is also Huetia,^ whose seed is rather more concave Kg. 121. Fruit (f). near section of Falcaria^ L'jmatocarum FieCH, et Mey (Ir,d.
