conical, bilocular: S¢y/e afcendant, longer than the ftamens : 
Stigma acute. 
We have not feen the ripe fruit; according to Fasaicrus 
it is a foft fucculent brown-black berry, crowned with the dried 
remains of the calyx; but it is very doubtful whether he 
defcribes the fame plant, though his account of the corolla 
correfponds well enough. .The germen in our plant is evi- 
dently fuperior, and could not therefore be crowned with the 
calyx, unlefs it increafes at the bafe only and elevates the calyx 
in its progrefs. ae 
The rudiment of the fifth filament, and the equal, exferted 
ftamens approximate this plant to the genus Lonicera, asa 
fpecies of which Burmann confidered it.
