570 POLYANDRIA MONOGYNIA. Capparis. 
7. C. heteroclita. R. 
Shrubby, climbing, unarmed. Leaves elliptic; Corynuibe 
terminal, Calyx four-cleft. Corol regular. Stamina on 
the receptacles. Berries long, compound. 
Teling. Putta tiga. 
A large unarmed climbing shrub, a native of the most 
unfrequented and inaccessible woody parts of the Circar 
mountains. It flowers during the cold season. 
Trunk and branches climbing. Bark of the old lig- 
neous parts brown, and rough; of the young, round 
shoots, smooth and green. Leaves alternate, petioled, 
oval, entire, smooth on both sides; from one to two 
inches long, and from half an inch to an inch broad. 
Flowers pretty large, pale greenish white, terminal, form- 
ing small corymbs, of from four to eight on pretty long 
round, smooth peduncles. Bractes minute, one under 
the base of each peduncle. Calyx one-leaved. Tube 
short, campanulate, four-sided. Border four-parted ; di- 
visions broad-lanceolate, acute, entire, smooth. Corol 
four-petalled. Petals inserted into the calyx over the 
fissures, equal, lanceolate, waved, acute, about half the 
length of the calyx.. Filaments many, longer than the 
calyx, inserted on a clavate receptacle, which is as long 
as the tube of the calyx. Anthers oval. Germ elevated 
on a long, slender style-like pedicel, even with the ee: 
oblong, two-celled, each containing . two vertical rows | 
ovula, attached to the partition. In what I consider the 
teal species of Capparis, the receptacles are 
here septal. Style none. Stigma large, rather rough, 
and convex.  Pericarp a long, compound, pendulous, 
berry, or rather four rows of berries, affixed along 4 sgh 
ceptacle: the whole is from two to five inches long, 
singly they are about the size of a cherry, covered wit 
a thin, dry bark. Seeds only one in each: ag eee" 
or lobe of the compound frnit. 
Note. I should meeps, with several of J equ
