Their alternate imparipinnate leaves have entire leaflets and unsymmetrical lateral stipules, often greatly developed. The flowers form terminal and axillary racemes, each flower axillary to an often persistent bract. The three species of this genus belong to the South of Europe and to Eastern Asia.' The Galegece proper (or Tephrosiem) have the following points in common with the preceding genus. The flowers form racemes, terminal, leaf-opposed, or collected into terminal panicles."
