Another cryptic label
Here's another one that TPP hasn't figured out. So see if you can help out with this one as well. Another member of Apiaceae. As you can see, another 150 yr old specimen and still in pretty good shape.
It does read Heliosciadium, but the actual generic name was Helosciadium, but helio- made so much sense. No wonder I could not find it. Harder to look up species names back then. This is a synonym of Apium inundatum (L)Rchb.f. This has been a great help.
Heliosciadium unundatum
ReplyDeleteHelosciadium inundatum (L.) W.D.J.Koch, yes Apiaceae
ReplyDeleteNow Pimpinella inundatum, I think.
ReplyDeleteIt's an H! I read it as "Sp".
