In the genus Memora, as in Pleonotoma, the petioles and gels 
are always very tumid at both extremities, the main petiole being term 
nated by 2 lateral ОВ with an intermediate long and strong simple 
cirrhus; these branches are simply 3-foliolate 9r bijugately impari- 
pinnate, or Be 2-pinnate, with an odd le at the termination 
of all the divisions. The stipuloid leaflets are ШЕР minute, like small 
bracts, or altogether obsolete. The inflorescence is usually in small 
axillary recemes, the calyx largely developed and cleft on one side by 
a deep oblique fissure, as in Macfadyena, the other side being apiculated 
with 5 close minute teeth, it is inpet shorter and more coriaceous, · 
with a smaller lateral fissure, and an oblique margin: the corolla is 
large and showy, with included stamens. The capsule, though siliqui- 
form, is broad, with very thick ligneous valves, slightly convex, which 
fall off, leaving on the pedicel a free replum on each side of the persis 
tent parallel dissepiment, which is ligneous, 2- lamollar, жод 
within both margins on each face by 3 or 4 rows of ci by 
the hilar points of attachment of the seeds. The seeds are remarkable 
for being like those of Tanacium and Adenocalymna, being large, thick, 
compressed, with broad opaque coriaceous margins upon 3 of their 
sides, and marked on the other straight side, by a large broad and 
nearly marginal hilum, The genus is, therefore, ics mm by very 
salient features, and should rank near the 2 genera last-mentioned, 
in the division Pleiostictides of De Candolle. The species, according 
to the following list, are handsome scandent plants, climbing to the 
tops E a loftiest trees of the forest, and are therefore rare in 
colleeti
