* Impatiens noli tangere (touch me not) receives its name from its taper pods. 
When ripe, bursting on being touched; and twisting spirally like a screw, leap from 
the stalk, and cast out the seeds with great elasticity.— Miller’s Diet. See note 
to momordica. 
•f* In Europe the flower of the common violet always hangs down, in the Indies 
it is generally upright. In the Synopsis of British Plants, published in Latin by J. 
Symons, in 1798, the genus viola is removed to the class pentandria. —And Dr. 
Smith dismisses the whole of this order monogamia, and places it in the class pen- 
tandria , because the union of the anthers is not constant.
