159 Corynocarpacee”: Referred to the Berberidacess by Jussreu and 
SPRENGEL, while assigned to the Anacardiacess by Hooxrer. At the same time, 
the family is compared with the Myrsinaceee by some authors. ENGLER 
maintains that it should be referred to the Sapindales, while Van TrecHEm 
places it near the Geraniaces. 
160 Aquifoliacere”: Near the Icacinaces. Also related to the Celas- 
traces in the ‘leiterformige Durchbrechungen.’ In habit, the family is so 
very near the Symplocacex, that it is altogether impossible to distinguish one 
from the other in sterile specimens. This resemblance is not only externally 
manifest but also internally, as is seen in the anatomical characters”. 
161 Celastraceze’: Closely connected with the Hippocrateaces, Sapin- 
dace, Staphyleaceze, Icacinacese, Aquifoliacess and Rhamnacez, the family alo 
bears some resemblance to the Euphorbiaces, as-can be seen in a compari- 
son of Eleodendron (Celastr.) with the Phyllanthese (Euphorb.) 
162 Hippocrateacee”: ‘The relation of this family to others is as 
yet undetermined. Somewhat related to the Celastracess and Trigoniaceze. 
163 Salvadoraceer™: The general affinity of this family with the 
Celasatraceze is incontestable. But, so far as the gamophyllous corolla is con- 
cerned, it should be brought quite close to the Oleacee. 
164 Stackhousiacesze”: Closely related to the Celastracee. 
165 Staphyleacew®: These are closely related to the Sapindacee in 
the copious albumen, in the intrastaminal discus, in the straight embryo, and 
in the anatomical characters. Dr CANDOLLE and ENDLICHER place the Sta- 
phyleacese near the Celastrace. 
166 Icacinacee”: Very near the Aquifoliacese ; but so far as the fruit 
is concerned, they are quite close to the Olacacez. 
167 Aceracee’™: Nearest the Sapindaceze and Hippocastanacez.
