II. JUNIPEREÆ. 
13. Juniperus L. — Flores monœci v. diœci ; maseulis (stamini- 
bus) in columna spiraliter insertis; antheris arete approximatis . 
laxius distincte oppositis v. 3-natim verticillatis ; filamentis brevibus 
v. brevissimis, nunc tenuibus; connectivi appendicula squamiformi, 
Ovata v. peltata; loculis 2-6, 2-valvibus, sub appendicula occultis v. 
deorsum prominulis. Amenta fœminea subglobosa; bracteis 3-nalim 
verticillatis v. 2, 3-seriatim oppositis, arcte contiguis. Flores fœminel 
in axilla bractearum intimarum 1, 2 solitaria v. 2-na, erecta libera, 
demum bracteis accretis occulta; stylo brevi, plus minus recurvo, 
apice pervio sæpe inæqui-2-labiato. Strobilus e bracteis conniven- 
übus v. subconferruminatis, carnosis, succulentis v. subfibrosis, 
drupaceus v. bacciformis, extus lævis v., ob bractearum margines 
prominentes, rugoso-carinatus. Fructus coriacei, indurati v. ossel, 
aut liberi, aut in massam duram conferruminati; nucleis 1-spermis; 
seminis imdumento tenui; embryonis albuminosi cotyledonibus 2, Y. 
rarius 3-9. — Arbores v. frutices sempervirentes; foliis oppositis v. 
3-natim verlicillatis, linearibus acicularibus v. brevioribus adnat0- 
decurrentibus; floribus maseulis in amenta simplicia v. composità 
dispositis, nunc in ramulo minute foliüfero insertis. (Orbis utriusque 
reg. frigid., temp. et calid.)
