a short ample tube, a campanulate throat, and a bilabiate limb ; 
lips flattish ; upper lip emarginate or bifid ; lower lip trifid. Sta- 
mens 4, didynamous, shorter than the corolla ; lower ones some- 
times the longest and sometimes abortive. Achenia coriaceous, 
- wrinkled reticulately. Style almost permanent.
