38. A. muralis (Link) Sieber ex Sprengel View in CoL , Syst. Veg. 2: 397 (1825)

( A. oxypetala auct., vix Sibth. & Sm.).

Glandular-pubescent annual; stems 7-15 cm, ascending or erect, slender, diffusely branched. Leaves 5-15 mm, obovate, acute, 1 -veined, narrowed into a distinct petiole. Inflorescence lax, 5- to 20- flowered; pedicels (2-)3-4 times as long as sepals, slender, rigid, patent or deflexed in fruit. Sepals 2-5-4 mm, lanceolate, acute, with obscure veins; petals scarcely exceeding sepals, linear-lanceolate. Capsule slightly exceeding sepals, oblong. Seeds 0-4-0- 6 mm with very acute tubercles. Mountain rocks. Kriti. Cr. (IF. Asia.)

A. oxypetala Sibth. & Sm. , Fl. Graec. Prodr. 1: 303 (1809) from Ilia and Attiki in Greece has acuminate sepals and petals; it is extremely like 38, and further investigation may indicate that it should be included, along with several W. Asiatic species, under a common name (possibly A. graveolensSchreber, Nova Acta Acad. Leop.-Carol. 3: 478 (1767)).

26 can often be distinguished from 38 only by its perennial habit.
