Description:Excerpt from The Annals and Magazine of Natural History, Vol. 14: Including Zoology, Botany and Geology This genus is truly cosmopolitan, being found abundantly in Europe, Asia, Africa, and America, in the former more rarely in regard to the number of species, in the latter most abundantly. The species are mostly low straggling shrubs, or bushes of crooked and stunted growth, generally with thorny branches, often barren and knotty, the younger branches bearing usually fasciculated leaves: these branchlets commonly dwindle into short acute spines, which are both leafy and floriferous. They grow ordinarily in maritime situations, or in inland sandy deserts, where the soil is more or less impregnated with saline matter. Contrary to general rule, the leaves and the habit of the plants afford uncertain specific characters; for the leaves are often so polymorphous, that specimens of the same plant are sometimes mistaken for different species, and on the other hand, many species so closely resemble each other, in habit and form of their leaves, that they are frequently confounded together.
