in C. byffoides, appear to be formed by the arching over of the veins or nerves 

 which are very obvious in the joints ; the length of the joints varies ; in the ftem 

 and principal branches it is three times their diameter, to which, in the ultimate 

 ramuli, it is hardly more than equal; the capfules are ovate, either terminal or 

 lateral ; they are moftly feffile, but very fhort fruit-ftalks are fometimes obfer- 

 vable. 



In drying it adheres but flightly to either glafs or paper.
