vexis; radicula tereti supera..— Frutices glabri v. rarius puberuli; 
foliis alternis simplicibus integris; stipulis intrapetiolaribus (innova- 
tionum nune sæpe imbricatis et aphyllis) ; floribus in axillis foliorum 
(nunc in ramentis abortivorum) cymosis v. solitaris. (Orës Lot. reg. 
trop. el subtrop.) — Vid. p. 19. 
7. Aneulophus Bexrx. — Flores fere £rythroxyli; petalis 5, intus 
costa prominula percursis, deciduis. Stamina 10 (Erythroxyle). Germen 
3, h-loculare; stylis 3, 4, plus minus alte connatis, apice stigmatoso 
subclavatis; ovulis in loculis singulis 2, collateraliter descendentibus 
Drupa; putamine 1-4-loculari, 1-4-spermo ; seminibus,..? — Frutex 
glaber ; foliis oppositis integris; stipulis interpeliolaribus brevibus 
conuatis ; floribus axillaribus cymosis; pedicellis gracillimis, basi brac- 
teolatis. (Africa trop. occ.) — Vid. p. 51. 
IV. HOUMIRIEZÆ. 
8. Houmiri Aug. — Flores regulares hermaphroditi ; receptaculo 
brevi convexo. Sepala 5, libera v. basi connata, imbricata, nunc rarius 
in calycem alte gamophyllum et brevissime 5-dentatum connata, Petala 
totidem alterna, contorta v. imbricata, decidua. Stamina 10 — w , aut 
fertilia omnia, aut alternatim sterilia, basi connata v. rarius libera ; 
“ antheris introrsis, nunc versatilibus ; loculis aut majusCulis connectivo 
vix v. plus minus longe apiculatis, aut sæpius minoribus et remote 
intus ad basin eonnectivi crasso-carnosi compressi subconici v. subpyra- 
midati adnatis, longitudinaliter rimosis. Germen liberum, disco hypo- 
gyno annulari v. cupulari, subintegro truncato, dentato, lobalo v. € 
glandulis linearibus distinctis composito, basi cinctum : loculis 5, alter- 
nipetalis, v. rarius 6-8 ; stylo simplici, apice stigmatoso x eviter 
dilatato, integro v. raiiute dentato. Ovula in AE 1, 2, descen- 
dentia ; funiculis inæqualibus ; micropyie extrorsum supera. Fructus 
drüpaceus; carne sæpe tenui v. coriacea ; putamine lignoso v. osse0 
er sæpe intus resinoso- lacunoso. Semina in loculis solitaria 
. 2-na et in locellis septo obliquo separata ; albumine carnoso; 
ee onis recti radicula supera cotyledonibus sæpius longiore. (America 
austr. trop.; Africa trop. occ.) — Vid. p. 51.
