472 NATURAL HISTORY OF PLANTS. 
flowers' in dense terminal sessile heads involucrate with small leafy 
bracts at the base? (Australia). 
33. Geleznovia Turcz.‘—Flowers nearly of Boronia, 4—5-merous ; 
sepals petaloid much larger than corolla, persistent. Petals shorter 
more or less navicular, imbricated. Stamens 8—10, 2-seriate, shorter 
than petals; anthers oblong. Gynzceum nearly of Boronia; ger- 
mens free, truncate at apex, 2-ovulate; styles terminal. Fruit cocci, 
1—5.—Small shrubs largely glandular ;’ branches terete rigid ; leaves 
alternate small sessile imbricated simple entire subovate veinless ; 
flowers’ at apex of branches solitary or scantily cymose, subsessile 
or shortly pedicellate ; pedicels furnished with bracts more or less 
adpressed to coriaceous calyx (Sowth-western Australia’). 
34. Philotheca Rupce—Flowers nearly of Boronia, 5-merous ; 
calyx and longer corolla imbricated. Stamens 10, either all fertile, 
anthers introrse; or sterile 5, antherless longer plumose-barbate 
(Drummondita’) ; filaments in conical tube, sometimes slightly in- 
curved at apex l-adelphous free only at apex, much villose-barbate. 
Gynæceum, fruit and other characters of Boronia (or Geleznovia).— 
Small ericoid glabrous shrubs, largely glandular-punctuate or tuber- 
culate; leaves alternate imbricated slightly terete ; flowers" terminal 
or axillary solitary shortly pedunculate (Australia). 
35. Nematolepis Turcz."—Flowers nearly of Boronia (or Philo- 
theca), 5-merous ; calyx imbricated. Petals 5, valvate, coalescing in 
elongated tube, free at base and apex. Stamens 10, 2-seriate; fila- 
ments free inwardly at base enlarged into pilose squamules ; anthers
