SECTION XCVII. ANONACE.E, OR ANONADS. 



Characteristics : Sepals three ; petals hypogynous, six bi- 

 serial ; valvate in aestivation ; stamens ordinarily indefinite, 

 multi-serial ; carpels numerous, free, or almost free, containing 

 one or more erect or ascendant ovules ; fruit dry or succu- 

 lent ; embryo small, at the base of a ruminated albumen ; 

 stem ligneous -, leaves alternate, simple, entire, without 

 stipules. 



The Anonacece inhabit almost every part of the torrid zone ; 

 their bark is aromatic and stimulant, sometimes acrid or 

 nauseous. The flowers have for the most part an agreeable 

 odour. 



The Anonas produce delicious fruits. The Anona Cherimolia, 

 a native of Peru, is the most celebrated. The sour sop, or Anona 

 muricata, and the sweet sop, or Anona squamosa, (Fig. 255, 

 256), natives of South America and the West Indies, also are 

 good fruit-bearers ; the fruits not merely gratifying the senses 

 of taste and smell, but pleasing the eye also on account of their 

 elegant shape.
