Fig. 1, a flower. Fig. 2, the calyx. Fig. 3, a petal. Mg. 4, the ovary. Fig. 5, 
longitudinal section of the same : all nat. size. Fig. 6, the same, magnified. 
Plate 21. — A. Emmotum pagifolitjm. 
Fig. 1, a flower expanded, nat. size. Fig. 2, the same, magnijied. Fig. 3, the calyx, 
showing its articulation on the pedicel. Fig. 4, a petal, seen from within. Fig. 5, out- 
side of the same. Fig. 6, the same, viewed sideways. Fig. 7, a stamen : all magnified. 
Fig. 8, stamens, seen in different positions. Fig. 9, an anther, before dehiscence. Fig. 10, 
a filament. Fig. 11, transverse section of anthers, showing their peculiar mode of de*his- 
cence : all more magnified. Fig. 12, the pistil, magnified. Fig. 13, the stigma. Fig. 14, 
longitudinal section of the same. Fig. 15, longitudinal section of the ovary, showing one 
of the cells with two suspended ovules. Fig. 16, transverse section of the same, showing 
its five cells, two of which are abortive : all more magnified. 
B. Emmotum acuminatum. 
Fig. 1, a petal, outside view. Fig. 2, the same, seen sideways. Fig. 3, the same, seen 
from within. Fig. 4, a stamen. Fig. 5, the pistil : all magnified. Fig. 6, the stigma. 
Fig. 7, stamens, seen in different positions, more magnified. Fig. 8, transverse section of 
anthers before and after dehiscence, still more magnified. Fig. 9, transverse section of 
the ovary, showing its five cells, where two of them are abortive, magnified. Fig. 10, a 
fruit, seen sideways. Fig. 11, the same, viewed from above. Fig. 12, transverse section 
of the same, showing its drupaceous nut, with five cells, in four of which the seeds were 
evidently withered ; all nat. size. — The details of the fruit were obtained subsequently to 
the printing of the type in p. 177, and were obtained from a specimen among Mr. Spruce’s 
collections from the Rio Negro, No. 1989 : it is an additional proof in confirmation of the 
true structure and affinity of the Icacinacece as shown in this volume. 
Plate 22. — A. Emmotum nitens. 
Fig. 1, a flower expanded, nat. size. Fig. 2, the same, magnified. Fig. 3, the calyx. 
Fig. 4, pistil and disk, seated in the calyx, half of which is cut away : all magnified. 
Fig. 5, vertical section of a flower, with the ovary and disk entire. Fig. 6, a vertical 
section of the ovary, showing one of the cells with two suspended ovules. Fig. 7, trans- 
verse section of the ovary, showing three fertile and two abortive cells. Fig. 8, the stigma : 
all more magnified. Fig. 9, a stamen seen sideways. Fig. 10, the same after dehiscence. 
Fig. 11, a stamen seen in front. Fig. 12, a back view of the same. Fig. 13, transverse 
section of an anther. Fig. 14, the same after dehiscence. Fig. 16, the filaments; all
