Stigma capitate, 2-cleft at the apex. Berry 2-celled ; cells - 
l-seeded ; seeds plano-convex. 
This is a common plant on the edges of tanks and water- 
courses, Itis most frequently, however, seen on the edges of

sented at the shrines of the gods. lt is in blossom the whole of 
the cool and rainy seasons.
