anthii inserta ; filamenta brevissima v. 0. — Autherc libere v. receptaculo discove crasso 
immers:e, 2-loculares, loculis subglobosis demum fluentibus, rimis fluentibus trans- 
verse dehiscentibus ; pollen gl bo en rudiment, minuta v. 0, rarius stylodia 3, 
subulata, erecta. Fl. 9: Staminodia 0, issime antherz 2 v. plures imperfectze. 
Ovarii carpella numerosa, in receptaculo ufo sessilia, 1-locularia. Stylus nune terminalis 
subulatus, stigmate acuto v. truncato, nune ventralis v. fere basilaris ovario brevior, 
stigmate clavellato v. gilliforme: Owwda in carpellis solitaria, in angulo interiore basi- 
laria, sessilia, erecta, anatropa, raphe ventrali, integumento unico, micropyle majuseula. 
Carpella matura, numerosa, in globum conferta, pyriformia v. obovoidea, recta v. curva, 
decidua, stylo persistente instructa ; depu crasse coriaceum carnosum v. cellulosum, 
facie dorsali et vertice Semen. peri io conforme, erectum,

percursa ; nucleus homogeneus, do carnosus, albus, oleosus, e granulis arcte connatis ; 
embryo si adsit nos omnino effugit. 
Herbule aphylle, simplices, tenues, rigidulw, totz albe flavze rubellie v. rosez, caule 
stricto v. flexuoso hic illic squamis paucis instructo, basi radices elongatas paucas simplices 
flexuosas rigidas emittente. Flores parvuli v. minuti, pauci et subcorymbosi, v. plures 
racemosi, pedicellis decurvis rigidulis basi bractea membranacea auctis. Perianthium 
stellatim-patens, segmentis non raro papillosis v. apicibus barbellatis. 
Species ad 16, Amerieze abest Gratus Indis orientalis et Archipelagi Malayani incole, ut 
videtur supra ligna et folia putrescentia vigentes, more V'oyrie et Burmanni specierum. 
Ordo nulli arete affinis, etsi 4Uiszaceis plus quam ullis aliis floribus conveniens; ab illis recedit 
habitu terrestri, perianthii segmentis l-seriatis valvatis, p eminibusque. Seminis nucleus ulterius 
serutandus, an albumine sit, embryone i ut in Zi ophoreis; vel embryo homogeneus ?.
