Ours glabrous perennial herbs with alternate compound dissected leaves and 

 irregular perfect flowers. Sepals 2, small and scale-like. Petals 4, in 2 dissimilar 

 pairs, the outer larger, inner pair narrower, carinate or crested on the back, 

 cohering by the callous apex and covering the anthers and stigma. Stamens in 

 2 sets of 3 each, placed opposite the outer petals, the filaments of each set usually 

 united; middle anther of each set 2-celled, the lateral ones 1-celled. Ovary
