Euphorbia taurinensis

Beschreibung

Small hairless annual (to 20(30) cm) with 2-horned flower glands, the horns notably long relative to the gland (occ. not), fruits 2.5-3.5 mm with 3 rounded lobes, the lobe humps grainy, leaves untoothed, stem leaves well-spaced and narrow (leaf ends pointed or indented, often broadening), raylet leaves (near the flowers) broad to slim (sometimes quite narrow but with some breadth); seeds 2 mm ovoid irregularly pitted or net-like (reticulate) but not furrowed, pale grey but darker in the pits and seed appendage (caruncle) prominent white c. hemispherical. (See illustrations Iconographia florae italicae and #3 at Flora of the USSR and iNaturalist Photos) Confusable species would generally display some opposite features : gland horns short(ish) or none, fruits angular-lobed unlobed or ungrainy, stem-leaves rather dense (e.g. E. exigua, E. aleppica), raylet (flower-) leaves very narrow (E. ledebourii, which usually has longer leaves), seeds furrowed or differing in some way.
