 calyx-tube 1 cm. long, finely villous within for upper third of its 

 length ; limb of four narrowly oblong-spatulate segments slightly 

 longer than the tube : petals obovate, 1 cm. long, short-clawed, 

 rose pink : stamens of equal length ; filaments terete, somewhat 

 thickened, scale at base terete, obtuse, 0.2 mm. long ; anthers ob- 

 long, 3 mm. long, versatile : style slightly surpassing stamens, 

 finely villous below the middle : stigma with four terete lobes ad- 

 herent to a circular indusium about half the diameter of the spread 

 lobes ; ovary fusiform, 4-lobed : fruit obovate-pyramidal, 7-8 mm. 

 l° n g. 3-4 mm. broad, angles rounded until mature when they are
