* unpublished genus, having five petals, which, though 
“ irregular, are of nearly equal size and similarly connected 
** by the cohering filaments, likewise five in number. The 
“essential characters of the order Polygaleæ, to which 
“ KRAMERIA, MONNINA, SALOMONIA, and several unpublished 
** genera, also belong, consist in the hypogynous insertion of 
* its corolla, which is always irregular, and frequently re- 
“duced to three petals, connected together by the co- 
“ hering filaments, whose antheræ are simple and bursting 
“ only at the top. Brown gen. rem. in Flind. voy. 2. 542.
