Calyx-tube elongated, cylindrical or narrow-turbinate, 10- or rarely 5- 
ribbed; lobes 5, scarious, spreading, short, broad, very obtuse.  Petals 5, 
entire, spreading, deciduous. Stamens indefinite, usually numerous, in 
= 
: t on the margin, the keel often 
green, persistent, continuous with the rigid pedicel, often united at the base 
Mto a turbinate cup, and in the free part overlapping each other, enclosing 
the base or nearly the whole of the calyx-tube. ; 
hei genus is limited to Australia. It is closely allied to Calythrir, with which F. Muel- 
: ee poses to unite it, but the constant want of any awn or point to the calyx-segments 
zg ìt so distinct an aspect that we may be justified in maintaining it as distinct. 
Am shortly produced above the ovary into a concave disk.
