 AND THEIR LEADING CHAEACTEEISTICS DEFINED. 



I— RENANTHERE^. 



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

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

 conformoiis.) 



E. PAUCiFLORA. — Leaves elongated, thick, shining, equally green, veined longitudinally ; umbels 

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

 (Leiophloiffi.) 



E. STELLULATA. — LeavBS Small, thick, equally green, veined longitudinally; umbels solitary, 

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

 valves enclosed. (RhytiphloiEe.) 



E. AiTTGDALiXA. — Leaves thin, equally green, veins not much spreading, oil-dots co^nous, trans- 

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

 depressed, valves enclosed. (Inophloiffi — LeiophloiEe.) 



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

 parently dotted; 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-conical ; fruits truTieate-ovate, border compressed, valves enclosed. (Inophloiee.) 



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

 lid semiovate-conical ; fruits truncate-ovate, border depressed, valves enclosed. (Rhytiphloiee 

 — Inojjhloiaj.) 



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

 spheric, pointed ; fruits truncate-ovato, border compressed, valves barely enclosed. (Inophloiaj.) 



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

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

 enclosed. (luopliloije.) 



E. STRiCTA. — Dwarf; leaves thick, mostly Tiarrow, equally green, sliining; umbels solitary, calyces 

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



E. ANGUSTISSXMA. — Dwarf ; leaves very narrow; flowers small ; tidje of the calyx broader than the 

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