316 NATURAL HISTORY OF PLANTS. 
lets 2, inserted at apex of pedicel (Temperate Asia, Australia, North 
America). 
167? Ougeinia Benra.’—Receptacle small cupshaped, lined by a 
very thick glandular disk. Calyx markedly perigynous; lobes 5, 
obtuse unequal; 2 superior connate into a broad, emarginate or 2- 
toothed lip; lowest lobe larger than lateral. Petals shortly ungui- 
culate; standard suborbicular or broadly obovate; wings obliquely 
oblong, slightly adhering to keel ; keel about equal to wings, slightly 
curved, obtuse. Stamens 10, 2-adelphous (9-1); anthers uniform. 
Germen sessile elongated; ovules ; style curved; apex capitate 
globose stigmatiferous. Legume elongated flat; segments 1-o, 
long oblong, rather thick, reticulated, scarcely dehiscent.* Seeds 
compressed reniform exarillate—A tree; leaves pinnate 3-foliolate ; 
leaflets large stipellate ; stipules deciduous ; flowers very crowded in 
short racemes densely fascicled at old nodes ; pedicels filiform ; bracts 
small scale-like ; bractlets inserted at top of pedicel below flower, 
subpersistent (Hast Indies*). 
VII. DALBERGIEZ. 
168. Dalbergia L. r.—Receptacle cupuliform, lined by a disk. 
Calyx gamosepalous; teeth 5, unequal imbricated; lowest often 
longer than others; 3 superior broader. Corolla papilionaceous ; 
petals unguiculate; standard ovate or obovate, more rarely orbicu- 
lar; wings obliquely oblong; keel obtuse, petals dorsally connate 
at apex. Stamens 10; either l-adelphous, sheath longitudinally 
cleft above; or 2-adelphous (9-1); more rarely 9, vexillary stamen 
absent ; anthers small erect didymous ; cells usually dorsally apposed, 
more or less longitudinally rimose from apex. Germen stipitate ; 
ovules few or 1; style curved; apex minute or slightly dilated, stig- 
matiferous. Legume oblong or linear or more rarely falcate, flat 
samaroid thin reticulated, slightly hardened at middle, 1-seeded or 
.
