10. Hakea Scurap.'—Flowers hermaphrodite; perianth nearly 
of Grevillea ; sometimes 1-lipped just before anthesis ; deciduous as 
a whole. Anthers 4, sessile, muticous, or shortly apiculate.? Disk 
hypogynous, cleft behind, entire, or more rarely 2-lobed. Germen 
stipitate ; ovules 2 (of Grevillea) ; style slender, apex dilated stigma- 
tiferous, obtuse, or conical. Follicle oblong, or more frequently 
ovate, ventricose, or gibbous, more rarely globose, smooth, or tuber- 
culate echinate or crested; cell excentric, 1, 1-seeded, 2-valved ; 
valves thick woody bark-like, at apex horned hooked or muticous. 
Seeds compressed, unequally winged, usually unsymmetrical, behind 
smooth, or more frequently wrinkled, crested, tuberculate, or echi- 
nate ;? wing membranous.—Shrubs sometimes small, rigid ; leaves 
alternate, coriaceous, terete, or flat, entire toothed or laciniate, often 
polymorphous; flowers in usually axillary racemes or fascicles ; in- 
florescences at first bud-like, involucrated in deciduous, imbricated, 
scarious scales ; bracts 2-flowered (Australasia‘).

that Strangea (MErssy., in Hook. Journ. (1855), 
66; Prodr., 348) seems to approach very nearly ; 
the solitary axillary flowers of the latter are 
unknown. It has a spongy - coriaceous oval- 
oblong 2-valved follicle; seed solitary, long- 
winged. Species 1. Australian (8. linearis 
Metssn.). [Molloya and Strangea are both 
reduced to species of Grevillea in the Flora 
Australiensis (v. 454, 453).]
