676. Cleome Dec. on this I must be explicit 

 but concise as most of the sp. are plants, and I 

 reserve my complete revision for another work, 

 my Polanisia has been generaly adopted, and 

 some N. G. have been proposed, Necker had 3 

 iifly years ago. The real Cleomes have a gy- 

 nophore bearing 6 stamens, types CL 5phyla, 

 3phyla, Kphyla, <!^c: the anomalies of the blen- 

 ded sp, are excessive. Peuteron, Peritoma, Stan- 

 leya, Stephania, Warea, Riddelia <Slc, are all 

 CXiEOMiDEs, which Nuttal wrongly changed to 

 Stanleae, see also till 707.
