596 CUCURBITACEE, 
barbatz vel hispidæ, pilis conico-subulatis infra succo flavo 
turgidis. Pollen flavum 3-angulatam glabrum Onagraroideum. 
Rudiment. Fem. carnosa globosa. 
Filament composit. fasciculi duo approximatis. 
Antherze compositze sunt, in vasorum fasciculorum centrale 
petiolorum cum opposita sunt! fasciculis propriis nullis ! an- 
thera discreta simplex. 
The truth is however, as I have observed in one case, that 
the filaments of all have distinct nutriment fascicles, but in 
the compound ones these are so closely united to the central 
one of the opposed petal, that they are not distinguishable 
until they reach the base of the filament. 
Of whatever genus this really is, it comes excessively 
close to Leucocodon, which differs only so far as the 
male flowers, and the fruits are concerned, in all the an- 
thers (3) being bilocular, and in the pollen, I hare pro- 
bably mistaken, the anthers which can scarcely be three, 
and all bilocular.

Remarks on the Genus. Pl. DCXVII. Figs. III. VI. 
Neither the fruit or flower of Zanonia appears to have 
been described. with the requisite accuracy. 
In a species lately brought to me, the fruit, is oblong cla- 
vate with a flat truncate apex, marked by three lines pro- 
ceeding from the obscure angles of its margin to the centre. 
About two lines below the apex is an annular cicatrix, it is 
one-celled with three large fleshy triangular placenta tapering 
below, but enlarged above. 
The seeds are two in each of the cells formed by the meet- 
ing of the placenta in the axis, they are truly pendulous, 
attached to placenta about opposite the annulus, they se o 
long compressed, surrounded by a wing, narrow on the ma^ —
