 introrse, 2-rimose ; cells sometimes quite free below. Disk minute 

 or 0. Germen 1-locular ; style exccntric slender more or less elon- 

 gated, scarcely capitellatc stigmatiferous at apex, sometimes stipate 

 at base, with 2 glandular horns erect-conical connate within 

 {Brachjanlus). Ovules in cell 2, collateral [Mappia). Fruit ovoid 

 drupaceous ; putamen thin ; albumen copious divided into strictly 

 adpresscd corrugate lobes ; embryo apical minute. — Glabrous shrubs ; 

 leaves alternate entire penninerved exstipulate ; flowers lateral to 

 leaves in contracted cymes (elevated with the branch) crowded ; 

 pedicels articiilate.- [Trop. W. Africa Malacca?) 



53. Gonocaryum Miq.* — Flowers polygamous- dioecious (nearly 

 of Leptaulus) ; sepals 5, distinct, imbricated. Petals 5, naturally free, 

 united in a tube (except at the apex) by means of the filaments, 

 valvate. Stamens 5 ; filaments hypogynous, coalescing outwardly 

 with margin of petals ; anthers introrse oval-oblong. Germen (in 

 male flower rudimentary) 1-locular, 2-ovulate ; style acute. Fruit 

 and seeds of Leptaulus. — Trees ; leaves alternate, entire penninerved 

 glabrous coriaceous pale nitid ; male flowers in glomerate interi'upted 

 spikes ; female and hermaphrodite few on short peduncle. (South 

 E. Trop. AsiaJ') 



54. Alsodeiopsis Oliv.** — Flowers hermaphrodite (nearly of 

 Apodytes) ; sepals 5, free lanceolate. Petals longer coalescing nearly 

 to middle, valvate. Stamens 5, alternipetalous free ; anthers ovate 

 or elliptical-oblong minutely apiculate, introrsely rimose. Germen 

 and ovules of Mappna ; style slender, scarcely dilated, stigmatiferous 

 at apex. Drupe subdry ; flesh scanty ; putamen thin crustaceous
