ne, quoted, I am yet of opinion 
that iti is correctly referred to this Order 
by Chamisso and Schlechtendal (v. Lin- 
nea, v. 5. p. .), and that its proper 
place is in Mr. Bentham’s tenth Tribe, 
d 
union of the base of the germen vidi 
that of the corolla and calyx, but it is of ` 
a very small portion: the whole of the 
seed-bearing part is free : 
ral structure of this capsule is xn to 
that of the greater number of 
oval, compressed, and furrowed dow the 
middle, where is situated the dissepiment 
of the two cells, 
ways continuing united with the persist- 
ent style. The corolla is infundibuli- 
form, bearded at the mouth, as in Sc 
paria, a genus closely allied to the pre- 
sent. Jussieu and De Candolle have 
referred the genus to Rubiacee ; Rich- 
ard to Caryophyllee.
