256 FLORA NIGRITIANA. 
The number of parts of the flowers, although usually different in 
he two, is expressly stated by Jussieu not to be so constant 
in C. Guianensis as to warrant the making-use of it as a specific 
distiction, still less as a generic one, as proposed by Roemer, 
apparently without re-examination of specimens.
