pinnate. Peduncles 1-flowered, solitary, alternate, axillary. Flowers yellow 
or white. " 
Kallstremia, Scop. (containing Trib. maximus, Lin. and Ehrenbergia tribuloides, 
Mart.) differs slightly by the 5-celled ovary, each cell containing two collateral pen- 
dulous ovules, and spuriously divided into two by a longitudinal septum (represent- 
ing a 10-celled 10-ovuled ovary); by the 10-ribbed stigma ; and by the fruit splitting 
into 10 l-seeded cocci, without transverse partitions. ; 
471. (1) T. Januginosus (Linn.:) leaflets 5-6-pair, nearly equal, with a 
close-pressed villous pubescence : peduncles shorter than the leaf: cocci each 
with 2 prickles.— DC. prod. 1. p. 704 ; Spr. syst. 2. p. 825: Wall.! L.n.6854;

II. FAGONIA.  Linn.; Lam. ill. f. 346 ; Gertn. fr. t. 113. 
Calyx deeply 5-partite, deciduous. Petals 5, longer than the calyx. Sta- 
mens 10; filaments naked at the base. Ovary acutely 5-angled, 5-celled : 
ovules 2 in each cell, pendulous from podosperms ascending from near the 
base of the cell. Style continuous with the top of the ovary, 5-angled, per- 
manent. Stigma acute, 5-furrowed. Fruit capsular, 5-coccous ; cocci com- 
pressed, at length separating from the central persistent axis, 2-valved, 1- 
seeded. Seeds ovate, compressed, scabrous, erect from the base of the axis. 
Embryo straight in a thin cartilaginous albumen.—Suffrutescent plants with 
spreading branches. Leaves opposite, 2-stipuled (stipules often thorny), 
1-3-foliolate ; leaflets mucronate. Peduncles from between the stipules of 
hes opposite leaves, solitary, 1-flowered. Flowers purplish, violet, or yel- 
Owish.

et linear, sence: stet inous, subulate, very sharp and acerose, 
longer than the leaf: peduncles twice as short as the leaf: fruit patience

ORDER XLVIL—RUTACEJE. Juss. 
Flowers bisexual, regular. Calyx 4—5-divided. Petals alternate 
with the sepals: æstivation between twisted and convolute, rarely val- 
vular. Stamens twice or rarely thrice as many as the petals, inserted 
round the base of the torus: anthers 2-celled, opening longitudinally. 
Torus various, discoid, or elevated, or cup-shaped. Ovary usually 
more or less deeply 3—5-partite, 3-5-celled ; ovules in each cell 2-4, or 
6-12, or numerous, pendulous or partly pendulous, or adnate to the 
placentas : styles combined, or in the deeply lobed ovaries oan 
the base and combined upwards: stigma 3-5-angled or farro : 
Capsule usually 4—5-lobed, the lobes opening internally at the apex: 
rarely 3-valved and loculicide, or a 4-celled drupe: sarcocarp snd — 
docarp combined. Seeds by abortion often fewer than the ovules, p 
dulous or adnate. Embryo contained in the fleshy albumen : — 
superior: cotyledons flat.— Leaves exstipulate (except in Peganum )s 
(except in Cyminosma), simple, or deeply lobed, or rarely pin- 
nated, usually with pellucid dots. — :
