occupying whole breadth of apex, numerous in several se- 
ries, ovaria in conum disposita series, styles filiform clavate 
very long, twisted, cellular scarcely stigmatose. 
Space between their bases occupied by a large mass of 
light brown viscum, which is probably the stigma. 
In the young state the styles are merely incurved, dilated 
and compressed, truncate at apex, furrowed longitudinally 
the margins of truncate apex along the end of sulcus looking 
rather stigmatic. 
Stamina disposed in a subdepressed libns mass. 
Pistilla when torn up from base, shew there 5 distinct 
veins, ] middle, 2 lateral. Ovula 4-6 plura uniseriata.

Oss. This is like the Usesquipedalis. It belongs to same 
sqad as the lutea, but passing off, the limiting of the stigmatic, 
secretion to the lower part of the style, and its congregation 
into a central viscous mass is curious, so are the long styles, 
twisted inwards almost involute, at the apex the fecundating 
sphacelation is intense at base of the styles.
