182 REPORT ON THE PLANTS 
illustrated by Dr. Lindley in Bot. Register, y. 301, tab. 54, under the 
name of Bignonia Carolina, which is the Pithecoctenium cynanchoides 
D.C. Of the 21 species of this genus enumerated by De Candolle, 
only 5 have been proved to belong to it, and in all these last, the thick 
ligneous valves of the capsule are echinated, the dissepiment being 
thick and woody, as is shown by Gaertner (Fruct. tab. 52). The large 
seeds, with a broad diaphanous margin, are arranged in а double line 
along each edge of the dissepiment. The genus Haplolophium has 
greatly the habit of Pithecocteniwm ; in like manner its leaves and inflo-

along each side of th 
of Haplolophium,

filaments are glabrous and nearly strai 
ferent lengths, are not divaricated at right 
almost parallel, and at maturity never expand 
beyond an angle of 45°; the ovary is supported on а fleshy disk, is 
i margin of the dissepiment, thu 
approaching more to Haplolophium than to Pithecoctenium, The fruit
