76 REVISION OF THE NATURAL ORDER HEDERACE.E. 
the propriety of restoring the genus Heplaphurum^ quite overlooked by 
De Caudolle when he established Paratropia, a genus in every respect 
identical with Hepiapleurmn^ if we adopt the definition which he him- 
self gives in the *Prodromus/ and which excludes one of the species 
(P. nodosa) incorporated with it at that place, but belonging to the 
older genus Poli/scias, Forst. The genus ActinomorpJie, according to 
Miquel's own showing (Ann. Lugd. Bat.), is identical with Hepta- 
pleurum. But I cannot admit Varajmuax, Miq. which I have shown 
tQ belong, at least in part, to Brassaia^ End!. Paratropia, being ab- 
sorbed by Jgalma^ Heptapleurum, Polyscias^ Brassaia, and other 
genera, has no longer any existence, and in finally dissolving it, T shall 
show how the difiperent species have been disposed of, viz. :
