2. Cr. peruviana (of Peru), l inn.: Benth. in DC. Prod. x. 408, and FI. 
Auxtr. iv. 493. Stems from a procumbent or creeping base, often rooting at the 
lower nodes, ascending or erect, bin. to 1ft. high, the whole plant quite glabrous 
or viscid-pubescent. Leaves sessile and stem -clasping, from ovate to lanceolate, 
obtuse or acute, serrate or almost entire, usually 3-nerved, especially when broad, 
4 to lin. long. Flowers sessile or nearly so in the upper axils, larger than in 
G. pedunculata . Calyx 2 to 3 lines long or even longer when in fruit, the 
segments linear-lanceolate, acuminate. Corolla 0 to 7 lines long, the lips broad, 
much shorter than the tube, the upper one notched. Anthers connivent, almost 
cohering, with transverse parallel cells. Btaminodia filiform, with minute 
globular heads, sometimes short and so slender as to be very difficult to find, 
sometimes more elongated. Capsule ovoid-globular, rather obtuse, membranous.

The species is also in New Zealand and in extratropical S. America, where it is usually 
narrow-leaved and nearly glabrous, as represented by .1. A. Schmidt in Mart. FI. Bras. Scroph. 
t. 49, but occasionally very viscid-pubescent, and more rarely broad-leaved. Benth.

(Derivation doubtful.) 
Calyx campanulate, 5-lobed. Corolla tubular at the base, with the lips 
spreading, the upper one 2-lobed. the lower larger and 3-lobed. Stamens, 2 
upper ones perfect, included in the tube; anther-cells distinct and parallel, 
2 lower reduced to minute filiform staminodia. Style with 2 fiat stigmatie 
lobes. Capsule opening loculicidally in 2 entire or rarely bifid valves, bearing in 
their centre the separate placentas. — Slender glabrous herbs. Leaves opposite, 
chiefly at the base of the stem, the others usually minute and few. Pedicels 
filiform. Bracteoles none. 
A genus with very few species, inhabitants of marshy or rich moist places in tropical Asia 
and Africa. The only Australian species is a common one in India. 
The ovary and capsule of this genus differ from those of all other (imtiolea in being scarcely 
perfectly 2-cel led The broad flat placentas are at ^ight angles to the dissepiment, and although 
their inner faces are contiguous and bear no ovules or seeds, yet they do not cohere, the ovu es 
and seeds being very numerous on their backs or outer faces, turned towards the walls of the 
cavity. — Benth. 
1. D. junceum (Rush-like), Hamilt.: Benth. in DC. Prod. x. 407, and /■/. 
Auxtr. iv. 491. A glabrous erect annual, branching chiefly at the base, 
sometimes scarcely above 2 or Sin. high, but when luxuriant its slender stems 
^attain 1ft. Lower and radical leaves oblong, obtuse, entire, contracted at the 
base and often above 4in. long, the others small, sessile, ovate, the upper ones 
few and distant and scarcely 1 line long. Flowers in the upper axils usually 
short but sometimes nearly 4-in. long. Calyx scarcely % line long, divided fo 
about the middle into narrow obtuse lobes. Corolla-tube about 1-4 line long, 
the throat very open, the upper lip 2-lobed, the lower very broadly 3-lobed, as 
long as the tube. Capsule globular, scarcely 1 line diameter. — Griff. Notul. iv.

14. ARTANEMA, Don. 
(Referring to the tooth, or support of the filament.) 
Calyx deeply divided into 5 herbaceous acuminate segments, dilated and 
much imbricate at the base. Corolla with a long broad tube, the upper lip 
broad and notched, the lower 3-lobed. Perfect stamen- 1, the anthers cohering
