TRIPHASIA. AURANTIACEA, 9T 
Ovarium globular, usually 4-celled: ovules 2 in each cell, collateral, and 
near the base of the cell. Style as long as the staminal tube. Stigma 3-4- 
lobed. Berry globose, 3-4-celled, 3—4-seeded.— Thorny shrubs, with simple 
leaves, flowers axillary and terminal;

II. TRIPHASIA. Lour. 
Flowers and carpels symmetrical, in a ternary proportion. Calyx 3-cleft. 
Petals 3. Stamens 6: filaments distinct, subulate, the lower part broad and 
flat: anthers cordate-oblong. Torus slightly elevated, forming a short stalk 
to the ovary. Ovary obovate, glabrous, 3-celled, with 1 pendulous ovule in 
each cell. Style longish, thick. Stigma obtuse. Fruit baccate, 1-3-celled. 
Seeds 1 in each cell, surrounded with mucilage : cotyledons lobed.—Thorny 
shrubs with simple or ternate leaves. 
Occasionally fi in which a third part is added, or even taken away. 
' but the at iis io jene We feel almost inclined however to unite 
it with the Linnean Limonia. We exclude T. sarmentosa, Bl., a plant, if the de- 
Scription be correct, more allied to Sclerostylis, if not a new genus. "The only cer- 
species of the genus is the following. 
*323. (1) T. trifoliata (DC.:) leaves 3-foliate ; leaflets ovate, retuse, cre- 
nated from about the middle and upwards, lateral ones the smaller.—DC.

Lam, ill. t. 353. J. 2.—L. diacantha, DC. i. c. In gardens only: probably 
Introduced from China. 
III. LIMONIA. Linn.; Lam. ill. t. 353. 
Flowers and carpels symmetrical, in a quaternary or quinary proportion. 
Calyx 4-5. cleft, Padi. Stime 610: Frid distinet, subulate, 
dest and flat below. Anthers cordate-oblong. Torus elevated, forming 
à short stalk to the ovary. Ovarium obovate, 4-5-celled, glabrous, with 1-2 
collateral pendulous ovules from the top of each cell. Style elongated. 
Stigma obtuse. Fruit baceate, 4—5- (or fewer by abortion) celled; seeds 
solitary in each cell, surrounded with mucilage.—Shrubs or trees. Leaves 
Simple, 3-foliate, or pinnate. 
Citrus angulata, Willd. (Rumph. Amb. 2. t. 32) belongs obviously to this genus.
