Folia alter-na, rhambeo-ovata , supra basim cuneatam trifida, se-gmentis sursum versis, medio elongato, insqualiter,remotiuscule dentatis, subinde etiam parvis, integris,suprema saepe lanceolata , integra, vel parcius dentata,omnia mediocriter petiolata , subtus plerumque magisalbo-pulveracea.

Smithius in Engl. Bot. v. 3 . p. i 65 . observat de hac spe-cie: » This is the real Atriplex laciniata of Linnaeus ,» thongh the description in Sp. pl. ed. 2., does not al-» together accord with onr British specimens, owing» to that description having been made from the con-» sideration of several specimens in the Linmeau her-» barium which to us appear distinet species •.
