Fruit lenticularly compressed from the back, or the transverse 
section is nearly terete. Mericarps with 5 primary, filiform, 
bristly ribs: the lateral ones placed in the commissure, which 
is flat, as in Thapsiée ; and with 4 secondary ones, which are 
more prominent and prickly than the primary ones: the 
prickles free, or joined into a wing. Seed complanate or 
somewhat semi-teretely convex, flattish in front.
