‘‘ A half-superior corolla, joined with an inferior calyx, 
characters found both in this genus and in Velleia, is up to 
the present time without example.” Such were the words of 
Dr. Robert Brown, when he founded the genus in 1810, and 
they remain without example up to the present day. From 
Velleia, with which among Goodeniaceew Euthales agrees, 
that genus differs in its tubular not 5-leaved calyx, and in 
wanting an epigynous gland between the two anterior fila- 
ments. 
This is very different from Z. trinervis, the original spe- 
cies, in having a strong erect branched stem, with broad deep 
green leaves, as much as six inches long. It grows from 
three to four feet high, and is covered with gay yellow and 
brown flowers during all the summer. It is a greenhouse 
herbaceous plant. 
Fig. 1. represents the adherent base of the corolla, with 
the stamens and pistil; 2. shews a section of the ovary; 
3. is a stamen. 
* From ev well, and Saddw to flower, in allusion to its gay and 
numerous flowers.
