tudinally through each. The flowers are produced 
fc-atteringly at the end of the branches, which are 
fhaped like thofe of the former fort, but fmaller. 
Both thefe plants abound with an acrid milky juice 
like the Spurge. The fecond fort grows naturally in 
Jamaica. 
Thefe plants are propagated by feeds, which mull be 
procured from the places of their growth, for they 
do not perfedl their feeds in England. They may 
alfo be propagated by cuttings planted in a hot-bed 
during the fummer months : they inuft have a bark- 
ftove, for they are very tender plants ; but in warm 
weather muft have plenty of air. 
C A M O C L A D I A, the Maiden Plumb. 
The Characters are, 
It hath a tripartite coloured empalement of one leaf ff read- 
ing open ; the flower hath three plain , oval, fpreading 
petals , and three awl-fhaped ftamina Jhorter than the co- 
rolla , terminated by rbundifh incumbent fummits , and an 
oval germen , but no ftyle , crowned by an obtufe ftigma ; 
the empalement afterward becomes an oblong Plumb , 
having three pun'ciures at the top , inclofing a nut of the 
fame form. 
This plant is ranged in the firft order of Linnaeus’s 
third cl afs, intitled Triandria Monogynia, the flower 
having three ftamina and one ftyle. 
The Species are, 
1. Camocladia ( Integrifolia ) foliolis integris. Jacq. 
Amer. 12. Camocladia with entire lobes. Prunus race- 
mofa, caudice non ramofa, alato fraxini folio non 
crenato, fructu rubro fubdulci. Sloan. Cat. 184. The 
Maiden Plumb. 
2. Camocladia ( Dentatd ) foliolis fpinofo-dentatis. 
Jacq. Amer* 12. Camocladia with prickly indented 
leaves. 
The firft fort grows naturally in Jamaica, and alfo in 
many other of the iflands in the Weft Indies ; this 
rifes with an upright ftem near twenty feet high, gar- 
nifhed with long winged leaves, whofe pinnae are en- 
tire; at the top there are a few branches fent out 
about a foot long, which fuftain the flowers and 
fruit* 
The fecond fort grows naturally at the Havanna, 
where it rifes about the* fame height with the former; 
but as the flowers and fruit of this are unknown to 
the author, he can give no farther account of 
them. 
Thefe plants are propagated by feeds, when they can 
be obtained from the places of their growth, which 
fhould be fown in pots and plunged into a hot-bed ; 
the plants, when fit to remove, fhould be each planted 
in a finall pot, and plunged into a tan-bed* and in 
the autumn fhould be plunged into the bark-bed in 
the ftove, and treated as other tender plants. 
CAMPANIFORM flowers [of campana, a bell ; 
and forma, Lat. fhape,] fuch flowers as in fhape re- 
femble a bell. 
CAMPANULA. Tourn. Inft. R. H. 108. tab. 38. 
Lin. Gen. Plant. 201. [fignifies a little bell, as tho’ 
parva campana, Lat. fo called, becaufe the flowers 
referable a little bell.] 
The Characters are, 
Phe empalement is divided into five acute parts , is upright , 
fpreading , and refls upon the germen. Phe flower is of 
one leaf fhaped like a bell. , fpreading at the bafe where 
there are holes. In the bottom is fituated the five cornered 
nehiarium , which is joined to the top of the receptacle. 
It hath five floort ftamina , which are inferted in the top 
of the valves of the neblarium, terminated by long com- 
preffed fummits : below the receptacle is fituated the an- 
gular germen , fupporting a ftyle which is longer than the 
ftamina , crowned by a thick , oblong , tripartite ftigma. 
Phe empalement afterward becomes a rbundifh angular 
capfule , which in fome fpecies have three , and in others five 
cells , each having a hole toward the top , through which 
the feeds are fattened when ripe. 
This genus of plants is ranged in the firft feflion of 
Linnaeus’s fifth clafs, intitled Pentandria Monogynia; 
the flowers of this clafs have five ftamina, and in this 
flection but one ftyle.
