ORDER XIX. ACERINEZ.—Jovss. 
Perianth double. Calya five, rarely four to nine partite, imbri- 
cated. Petals the same number as the calyx lobe, and inserted round 
an hypogynous disk. Stamens generally eight, inserted upon the 
hypogynous disk. Anthers oblong. Ovary two lobed. Style single. 
Stigmas two. Fruit consisting of two indehiscent carpels, which 
separate when ripe, each carpel one celled, one to two seeded, com- 
pressed in the upper part, and terminating in a diverging membra. 
nous wing, thickened at the lower part. Seeds oblong, attached to 
the base of the cell. Hmbryo curved, with foliaceous wrinkled coty- 
ledons, and an inferior radical. Albumen none.—Trees with opposite 
simple leaves. 
GENERA. 
Flowers polygamous, calyx five parted. Acrr, v. 2. p. 540. 
ORDER XX. GERANIACEA.—Jovss. 
Perianth double. Calyx of five persistent sepals, more or less" 
unequal, imbricated in estivation, one sepal sometimes saccate, or 
spurred at the base. Petals generally five clawed, equal or unequal, 
either hypogynous or perigynous. Stamens usually monadelphous, 
hypogynous, or perigynous, two or three times as many as the petals, 
sometimes abortive. Ovary composed of five cells, round on an elong- 
atedaxis, Styles five, long, cohering roundthe axis. /ruit formed of 
five carpels, sub-membranous, cohering round,the lengthened indu- 
rated style, which curls up in various modes, and draws up the carpel 
out of the calyx. Seed solitary, pendulous, without albumen. 
Embryo curved. Fadical pointing towards the base of the carpel. 
Cotyledons foliaceous, convolute, and plaited.—Herbaceous plants or 
shrubs. Leaves either opposite or alternate, when alternate the pedun- 
cles are opposite.
