* Elsewhere I have ascribed to the species of this section triadelphous 

 anthers ; but in T. anguina, I suspect they are all united ; and in T. 

 cucumerina, they also, at least in the dried specimen, appear to cohere ; in 

 this last, the filaments are inserted almost at the top of the tube of the 



perianth.
