SAPINDACEZ. V. Enourea. 
nished with a petal-like scale on the inside at the claw, with 2 
glands at the base of each of the larger petals on the disk. Sta- 
mens 13, inserted in the receptacle, unequal, connate at the base, 
somewhat leaning to one side. Ovary roundish. Style none. 
Stigmas 3. Capsules spherical, 1-celled, 3-valved, 1-seeded. 
Seed erect, clothed with farinaceous pulp.—A climbing shrub 
with impari-pinnate leaves and axillary tendrils. Racemes of 
flowers panicled. This shrub should perhaps be placed among 
the Zerebinthacee, on account of the petals being perigynous, 
as well as from the plant abounding in milky juice.
