A g«tms belonging to an order of the syngenesious 

 class, where the florets of the circumference of the flower 

 are provided with fertile pistils, but have no stamens; 

 while thc^e of the centre have both stamens and pistils, the 

 latter of which however are sterile, and act merely as auxi- 

 liaries to the stamens in dispensing the pollen to the other-- 



wise unprovided stigmas of the ray.
