201. LYCII M L. 4-c. Tliis G. although very 

 akin to Ehretia, Cordia &c, has been put into 

 the SOLAMOES tribe! the main distinction was 

 the single stigma and more seeds in the berry, 

 and yet sp. with berries 1 or 2 loc. or a capsule ! 

 calix 3 to 10 dentate, cor. 4-10fid, and 4 or 5 

 stamens are united. The 5 nameless sections 

 of Kuntb must certainly be as many Genera, 

 and there are more blended. The real Lycium 

 Raf. has cal. urceol. ineq. 5fidus, cor. tubtilosa

 nearly to the first section of Kunth ; but he 

 v/rongly blends thereto some sp. of Cestrum 8$, 

 Atropa. The 2 next sp. have been omitted by 

 nearly all Anthors.
