Not illustrated. 1892 edition. Excerpt: ...about twice the length of the calyx, withering soon after expansion; petals more or less coherent with one another. Lgumes dry, scarious, containing each a single seed; seed somewhat kidneyshaped. TRIFOLIUM.--This genus comprises leguminose herbs growing in tufts or diffusely spreading, and characterized as follows: Leaves palmately or sometimes pinnately three-foliate, rarely more; leaflets usually minutely toothed, rarely entire; stipules scarious, coherent with the petioles. Inflorescence dense heads or spikes, or sometimes, when the flowers are few, umbellike. Calyx persistent, tubular or somewhat bell-shaped, five-cleft or toothed; teeth awl shaped. Corolla five-cleft, withering or persistent, monopetalous at the base; vexillum longer than the alae, and generally than the keel.

Ovary two-to sixseeded; style filiform. Fruit a small, scarious legume, containing from one to two or sometimes three to six seeds; dehiscence none, or, if present, it takes place at the suture and extends through the calyx.
