**^Calophanoides. — Flowers axillary, sessile, clustered or 

 solitary j uppermost clusters hardly confluent into a 

 spike. 

 fBranches herbaceous, internodes long. Leaves more or 

 less hairy. Flowers mostly 4 or 2 in each cluster 

 under one floral leaf with minute (or no) bracts, 

 though solitary flowers also occur. All the capsules 

 seen in this group normal, 4-seeded, exceeding \ in. 

 long. [Species 30-34 of this group, together with 

 37, may be treated as one (for which composite 

 species T. Anderson devised the name J. neglecta) ; 

 Oliver accepted this view, but kept 35. J. dys- 

 choristeoides distinct.]
