DWYN/IMIA GYM^OSPERMIA. 



A natural order, consisting entirely of the Verticillata; of 

 Ray, and of Linnaeus, 4'2; the Z/a6/«/f(^of Jussieu, 39. See 

 Grammar 99. A few genera, comprised in Jussieu's first 

 section, are excluded from the present class and order of 

 the artificial system, as having only 2 stamens, and are 

 referred therefore to the second class, Diandria. Of 

 these the only British genera are Lycopus and Salvia. 

 See vol. i. 33—35. 



The following are the characters of the Verticillata, a de- 

 nomination needlessly changed for Labiates. 



FloiX)ers all complete, as well as perfect, having a calyx and 

 corolla, with stamens and pistil, in every individual. 



Calyx inferior, simple, of one leaf, erect, tubular, often tu- 

 mid at the base, on the upper or lower side, permanent ; 

 orifice more or less deeply divided into 5 unequal, often 

 pointed, spreading segments.
