486 NATURAL HISTORY OF PLANTS. 
5-suleate, stigmatiferous at apex ; ovules in each cell 2, descending, 
superposed ; micropyle extrorse superior. Berry ovoid, 5-locular ; 
pericarp resinous-lacunose ; seeds in cells 1, 2, nidulant ; outer coat 
pulpy; testa crustaceous; albumen fleshy; embryo axile, albu- 
minous ; cotyledons wide, membranous; radicle short, superior.— 
Glabrous trees or shrubs; leaves alternate, simple or 3-foliolate, 
coriaceous, minutely glandular-punctuate ; flowers in much ramified 
terminal cymiferous racemes; twigs and pedicels thick, articulate 
(Brazil'). 
62. Acronychia Forsv.’—Flowers polygamous ; receptacle shortly 
conical. usually 4-lobed, imbricated, sometimes 
accrescent after anthesis. Petals 4, longer than calyx, valvate, 
finally patent or revolute. Stamens 8, 2-seriate ; filaments inserted 
outside below glandular conical disk, or 4-8-agonal from impres- 
sions of filaments, subulate, often ciliate; anthers introrse, 2-rimose. 
Germen free, often tomentose; style terminal, more or less elon- 
gated, at apex stigmatiferous, 4-sulcate or 4-lobed; cells 4, opposi- 
tipetalous ; ovules in each cell 2, descending, subcollateral or super- 
posed; micropyle extrorse, superior. Fruit dry or drupaceous, 
indehiscing or sometimes loculicidally 4-valved, more rarely at apex 
shortly 4-lobed, 4-agonal; testa black ; albumen fleshy; embryo 
straight ; cotyledons flat, oblong; radicle straight, superior.—Trees 
or small trees; leaves alternate or opposite, 1- or more rarely 
3-foliolate ; folioles entire, pellucid-punctuate ; flowers’ in ramified 
cymiferous racemes, sometimes corymbiform, axillary and terminal 
(Lrop. and Subtrop. Asia and Oceania’). 
Calyx short,
