Apparently a low shrub, in habit a good deal resembling the 
oronia crenulata (Bot. Mag. t. 3915), though very different in 
the foliage, and still more so in the flowers, which however are 
in both of a deep rose-colour, but here the stamens (which appear 
to be all antheriferous), instead of being clothed with copious, 
long, slender hairs, are beset with large sessile glands. The 
stigma, too, which in B. crenulata comes to a mere point, 1s 
here 3-lobed. In both, the Ovary is situated upon a large, 
fleshy disc.
