at the apex, 4-celled, each cell containing 1-ovula. Style rising 
from between the lobes of the ovary, divided in 4 at the base, but 
at length simple, terminated by a blunt stigma, which is obscurely 
4-fyrrowed. Fruit baccate, globose, 4-lobed, 4-celled ; each cell 
containing one seed, sometimes sterile. Seed subglobose, pendu- 
lous from the apex of the cell, Laving a double integument, 
marked at the hilum. Embryo green, with twisted cotyledons, 
without albumen.—A shrub, with alternate leaves, those at the 
top of the branches are simple, the rest are ternate; leaflets 
toothed at the base, lateral ones smallest, and unequal. Pe- 
duncles axillary, solitary, simple at the base, but divided at the 
top into a corymb; pedicels furnished with twin bracteas. 
Prickles scattered on the branches, rarely twin at the base of the 
petioles.

Orver LXI. DIPTEROCA’RPE# (plants agreeing in 
character with Dipterocdrpus). Blum. fl. jav. vol. 1. p. 1.— 
Guttiferdrum sectio Colebr. in asiat. res. 12.—Tiliaceze, Spreng. 
Calyx of 5 leaflets or segments, for the most part concrete at 
the base (f. 125. a.), rarely free, valvate or imbricate in estiva- 
tion. Petals 5 (f. 125. b.), hypogynous, joined into a subro- 
tate corolla, twisted in estivation (f. 125.d.). Stamens usually 
indefinite (f. 125. c.), hypogynous, free or connected a little at 
the base, sometimes irregularly polyadelphous; filaments di- 
lated at the base; anthers erect, elongated (f. 125. c.), awl- 
shaped, 2-celled, bursting at the apex by 2 pores. Ovary one, 
free, few-celled ; cells 2-ovulate. Ovule pendulous, fixed to the 
inner angle of the cells. Style 1, undivided, crowned by a sim- 
ple stigma. Fruit girded by a thick corticate pericarp (f. 125. 
e.), and by a more or less extended calyx (f. 125. f.), 1-celled 
and 1-seeded from abortion, 3-valved, indehiscent. Seeds with- 
out albumen, umbilicate at the base. Embryo with chrysalis- 
like contortuplicate, or unequally and obliquely incumbent coty- 
ledons, and an inferior or superior radicle-——Elegant trees, full 
of resinous turbid juice. Leaves stalked, alternate, entire, 
feather-nerved, articulately inserted, involute before expansion. 
Stipulas oblong, deciduous, convolute, as in Ficus, and therefore 
the branches are terminated by a conical acumen, which at length 
divides and falls off. Peduncles racemose, axillary, near the tops 
of the branches, or constituting a terminal racemose panicle. 
Flowers yellow or white, mixed with red. This order agrees 
with Ochnacee in the anthers being terminated by a beak, and 
opening by two pores, by their unilocular fruit, by the absence 
of albumen, and lastly by their alternate leaves, furnished with 
membranous caducous stipulas. The order is remarkable for 
containing the camphor tree of Sumatra, and many others of the 
species produce camphor, although of an inferior quality.
