They are mostly irregular, more numerous than those of the true Ferula and separated from each other by slightly elevated ridges. The umbels are also generally furnished with a polyphyllous involucre. The small importance we attach to the character of the inflorescence obliges us to consider as only a section of the same genus, Dorema (fig.. Fig. 87. Fiuit (f). ' These divisions are large and more or less deourrent under the ramifications of the ner- vures in the leaves of J. Narthex, an Indian species of which has been made the genus Nar- tiiex (Faicon.
