81 CALYCIFLOR^. 



5, oblong, obtuse, concave. Stamens 10 : anthers linear, 

 one-pored. Style erect: stigma depressed. Berry size 

 of a coriander seed, scarlet, 5-celled : seeds numerous, 

 minute, wedge-shaped, angular. 



This description agrees with that of Swartz in respect 

 to the leaves which are described by him as 5-nei ved, 

 from his reckon'ng the marginal pair, which he does not 

 usually take into consideration. 



This is a very remarkable species, readily attracting 

 notice from the size of the leaves. 



10. Miconia macrophylla. Large leaved Mi- 



conia. 



Branches panicles petioles and under surface 

 of the leaf-nerves ferrugineo-tomentoso-farinose, 

 leaves subsessile broad lanceolate attenuated at 

 the apex narrowing towards the base and slightly 

 cordate glabrous above stellate-pubescent be- 

 neath, 3-ply-nerved with a marginal pair, remotely 

 denticulated, thyrse panicled terminal, flowers 

 white sessile crowded.

Branches subterete, slightly compressed. Leaves 

 about 8 inches long and 4 inches broad, with the stellated 

 pubescence on the under surface distinct and not matted : 

 petiole 1-2 lines in length. Peduncle tetragonal, slightly 

 suleated. Calyx ierrugineo-farinose, 5-toothed 



This species is usually confounded with the preceding. 



11. Miconia punctulata. Punctulated Mi- 



conia. 



Branches tetragonal as also the petioles and 

 peduncles cinereo-farinose with a minute pube- 

 srence, leaves lanceolate attenuated at the base 

 entire triply-nerved beside a marginal pair sub-

 surface of the nerves, thyrse terminal.
