CAM PAN ALES. 



[Epigynous Exogens. 



Alliance L. CAMPANALES. — The Campanal Alliance. 



Diagnosis. — Epigynous Exogens, with dichlamydcous monopetalous flowers, and an 



embryo with little or no albumen. 



This, which is probably the most extensive of all the groups, in this Work called 

 Alliances, consists of Orders held together in the strictest bond of union. They form 

 two sets, of which the one has the ovary with more than one cell, and the other with 

 "one only ; but they probably have, in all cases, more than one carpel ; and Valerian- 

 worts, with one perfect and two seedless cells, completely joins the groups. In what 

 way they pass into Myrtals will be shown when speaking of that Alliance. From the 

 perigynous series they branch off by way of Gesnerworts, which have a half-superior 

 ovary, to Nightshades, among which there are genera, which like Jaborosa, are Bellworts 

 in most respects, except not having an inferior ovary.
