DALBERGARIA. 87 
q 20. Lanceo!arieae.—Pod wide-ligula'e to ovate-lanceolate, samarcid ; style slender, 
cylindric ; leaflets obtuse; trees, 
A very natural group. The species that deviates most from the others and stands apart as a 
subgroup by itself is D. paniculata, which has a different stem-structure, with alternating layers of wood 
and bast, and has the stamens differently inserted inside the calyx-tube. The remaining species exhibit 
a steady and gradual transition from one to the other,
