Ta. weideh it differs from SoLanpRA Heese ide, but not 
more than some species of Datura, a nearly-allied genus, 
differ from others in this organ. Tube more suddenl 
swelling out into the faux, which is again a little sotidieeied, 
making a more perfect cup-form than in grandiflora: the 
lacinie of the limb are more uniform than in grandiflora, 
and instead of being obtuse, as in that, elongated into a 
sharp point and rolled back from the apex to the base. The 
stamens and style perfectly straight, of the same length : 
stigma club-shaped.
