the consequence of union, (85, 101, 105, 109, 188, 

 198", S02.) 

 18, 19. Antherae of Erica tenella Andr. (antheras cris- 

 tatse), with cristate appendages. Neue Entdeck. 

 1. 271, (31.) 



20. Myccyporum tenuifoliuni Forst. The corolla with 



its quinque-partite ciliated margin. Four filaments 

 of unequal length at the entrance of the tube of tlie 

 corolla. The original numerical proportion is in- 

 dicated by the segments of the corolla. Of the 

 five filaments one is abortive, (198*, 199.) 



21. Quadrilocular drupe of the same plant, (112.) 



22. Flower oi Ducliesnea frag\formis Smith. The calyx 



has tripartite subordinate leaves. The hypogenous 

 filaments, in indeterminate number, are inserted on 

 the corollar integument of the calyx; Icosandria, 

 (35, 131.) The fruit arises from the enlarged re- 

 ceptacle, having its surface studded with granular 

 bodies. 



23. Flower of Barleria Jlava Jacq. The calyx consists 



of four unequal segments, of wliich the two exterior 

 are much larger than the other two, and the upper- 

 most is so much dentated, that it is impossible not 

 to perceive the original tendency towards a fivefold 

 division. The tubular corolla has a quinque-par- 

 tite margin, two of the lobes of which are reflex, 

 and the other three are emarginated. Of the five 

 filaments which there ought properly to be, and 

 which sometimes do appear, only two commonly 

 come to perfection, (178, 181, 389.) 



24. Flower of VeltJieimia viridifoUa Y^J. A calyx co- 



roUina, with the filaments inserted in it : these are 

 hypogynous. The germen is superior. The pistil 

 bent downwards, (35, 43, 90.) 

 516. Indications of the spiral vessels on the superficial cel- 

 lular texture of Sphagnum obtusifoUum, (278.)
