 AND THEIR LEADING CHARACTERISTICS DEFINED, 



I RENANTHEREJE. 



Anthers mostly broader than long, usually kidney-shaped, opening anteriorily by divergent, 

 upwards confluent slits. (Umbels generally solitary. Fertile aud sterile seeds mostly 

 conformons.) 



E. PAUCIFLORA. Leaves elongated, thick, shining, equally green, veined longitudinally; nmbels 

 solitary, lid hemispheric ; fruits truncate-ovate, border of orifice depressed, valves enclosed. 

 (Leiophloire.) 



E. STELLULATA. Leaves small, thick, equally green, veined longitudinally; nmbels solitary, 

 flowers very small, numerous, lid semiovate-conical ; fruits truncate-globular, border depressed, 

 valves enclosed. (Rhytiphloiee.) 



E. AMYGDALINA. Leaves thin, equally green, veins not much spreading, oil-dots copious, trans- 

 parent ; umbels solitary, flowers small, lid almost hemispheric ; fruits truncate-ovate, border 

 depressed, valves enclosed. (Inophloiee Leiophloifc.) 



E. EUGENIOIDES. Leaves equally dark-green, shining, very inequilateral at the base, much trans- 

 parently doffed; umbels mostly solitary, lid semiovate ; fruits truncate-globular, border 

 depressed, valves barely enclosed. (Inophloiee.) 



E. PIPERITA. Leaves less shining beneath, much transparently dotted; umbels solitary, lid 

 semiovate-couical ; fruits truncate-ovate, border compressed, valves enclosed. (Inophloise.) 



E. PILULARIS. Leaves rather less shining beneath; umbels mostly axillary, their stalks compressed, 

 lid semiovate-couical ; fruits trnncate-ovate, border depressed, valves enclosed. (Rhytiphloiao 

 Inophloiie.) 



E. ACMENOIDES. Leaves paler beneath; umbels mostly axillary, their stalks slender, lid hemi- 

 spheric, pointed ; fruits truncate-ovate, border compressed, valves barely enclosed. (Inophloise.) 



E. OBLIQUA. Leaves equally green, shining, very inequilateral at the base; umbels solitary, 

 calyces granular-rough, lid hemispheric ; fruits truncate-ovate, border compressed, valves 

 enclosed. (Inophloiee.) 



E. STRICTA. Dwarf; leaves thick, mostly narrow, equally green, shining; nmbels solitary, calyces 

 granular-rough ; fruits truncate-ovate, border compressed, valves enclosed. 



E. ANGUSTISSIMA. Dwarf; leaves very narrow; flowers small; tube of the calyx broader than the 

 semiovate lid; fruits semiglobnlar, with attenuated base, border depressed, valves barely enclosed.
