cleft. Berry (rather drupe) aggregate, oval. Seeds or nut 
regularly four and distinct to each proper berry, forming a 
square, inserted pyramid, each one-seeded. Here the abdr- 
tive cell is scarcely visible. 
Obs. This species is immediately known by its exsert sta- 
mens, half-concealed stigma, and broad-pointed leaves. In 
all the other species figured and described by me, viz. citri- - 
 folia, tinctoria, bracteata, multiflora, and angustiflora the sta- 
mens are enclosed, and the style exserted.
