478 NATURAL HISTORY OF PLANTS. 
small.—A glabrous tree ;' leaves opposite, pinnate ; folioles largely 
serrate or subentire, pellucid-punctuate ; flowers in cymiferous ra- 
cemes, often 2-chotomous’ (astern Australia’). 

45. Pagetia F. Muezr.‘—Flowers (nearly of Ævodia) 5-merous ; 
petals subvalvate. Stamens 10, inserted below annular disk ; fila- 
ments free, linear-subulate; anthers cordate-ovate. Germen 5-sul- 
cate ; styles 5, short, contorted in one ; stigmas minute, coalescing ; 
ovules in cells 4-6. Cocci 5, distinctly 2-valved ; endocarp separat- 
ing.—A tree; leaves opposite, petiolate, simple, or 2, 3-foliolate ; 
folioles ovate or cordate, unequal at base, coriaceous, glabrous, pen- 
ninerved, veined; terminal buds subglobose ; flowers’ in ramified 
3-chotomous terminal cymes (astern and Subtropical Australia’). 
46. Choisya H. B. K.’— Flowers hermaphrodite; receptacle 
thickly convex. Sepals 5, imbricated, deciduous. Petals same in 
number, alternate, longer, patent, imbricated. Stamens 10, of 
which 5 oppositipetalous are shorter; filaments free, subulate, inserted 
below glandular disk ; anthers introrse, 2-rimose. Carpels 5, oppo- 
sitipetalous; germen free, base immersed in thick disk, outwardly 
dorsally produced in erect cone ; styles same in number, inserted at 
internal angle of ovary, afterwards coalescing among themselves in 
an erect column, stigmatiferous, obtusely lobed, dilated at apex; 
ovules in each germen 2, descending; micropyle extrorse, superior. 
Cocci 5, 2-valved ; endocarp solute ; seeds . . . >—A glandular-punc- 
tuate shrub (very fragrant); leaves opposite, petiolate, exstipulate, 
3-foliolate ; petioles and folioles articulate at base ; flowers* in cymes 
terminal or axillary to the upper leaves, 2, 3-chotomous, ramified ; 
pedicels articulate at base, bracteolate (J/evico’).
