Calyx obsolete. Petals of the barren plant lanceolate, sube-

 ovate, with a short indexed point. Fruit laterally compressed, 

 ovate. Carpels with five prominent, filiform, equal ridges, of

 of petals, the dioecious plants, and the vittae or evident canals 

 beneath the ridges, together with a peculiar habit, constitute 

 this a very distinct genus. Hook. — Named in honour of Dr.
