Carpels nearly terete, ribless except at the beak; oiUubes none. Seed-face channeled. [Latin; derivation as in the following genus.] A few species, natives of warm and temperate regions of the Old World. Type species: Scandix Cerefotium L. I. Cerefolium Cerefolium (L.) Britton.

Basal and lower leaves slender-petioled, the upper smaller, nearly sessile, all ternately decompound into small segments; umbels numerous, rather short-peduncled, 3-6-rayed, the rays divergent, i'-ii' long in fruit; pedicels stout, 2"~3" long; bractlets of the involucels linear-lanceo- late, acuminate, about l" long; fruit linear, 3" long, glabrous and ribless, tipped with a ribbed beak of one-third its own length Roadsides and woodlands, Quebec and Pennsylvania.
