Schrebera. diandria monogynia. 109 



linear clavate, equal, contracted at their base, thickened blunt and 

 slightly vertical at their end. Mouth shut up by the anthers. — H- 

 laments two subulate, inserted above the base of the tube. — Anthers 

 fleshy, M'ith marginal cells, erect, scarcely elevated above the tube, 

 between two opposite fissures of the border. — Ovarium ovate, two- 

 celled ; ovula solitary inserted at their base. — Styles {Stigm/is ?) 

 two, subulate, acute, parallel, very short. 



Obs. I'his elegant shrub was introduced into the Garden in 1811, 

 and commenced blossoming five years afterwards. Not having ob- 

 served a single fruit I am doubtful of its identity with Chionanthus, 

 under which however I have ad interim placed it. The erect posi- 

 tion of the ovula seems to indicate that it belongs to the family of Jas- 

 mineff, as limited by Mr. Brown in his matchless Prodromus Flora 

 'Nova HoUandia ; in which case it may perhaps be found to consti- 

 tute a new genus. The aestivation of the corol is valvate. — N. W.
