 Gyranthera Pittier gen. nov. in Fedde, Rep. XIII (1914) p. 318. 



„The floral features of this tree would perhaps place it among 

 the Matisiae, while its digitale leaves would suggest Adansoniae. The 

 peculiar arrangement of the stamens in difficult to describe from dry 

 specimens, the only conspiouous character feeing the spiral or perhaps 

 meandrous disposition of the anthers around the upper part of the 

 staminal tube. Moreover the latter seenis lo eud in 5 lobes, about 4 cm 

 long, twisted also spirally and each bearing an another of equal length; 

 the cells of these anthers are divided into minute Square Chambers by 

 transverse septa. In boiled specimens the whole staminal tube beeomes 

 englobed into a gelatinous, transparent mass, which forbids a cloae 

 examination of the specimens.
