* The systematic position of Dysphania and Scleranthus is a matter which has involved 
great diversity of opinion. Bentham and Mueller both place Dysphania under Cheno- 
podiace, but Bentham and Hooker Jater on removed the genus to Lllecebracew (Parony- 
chiacee). Scleranthws is placed by Bentham and Hooker under Illecebracee, but is 
removed by Mueller to Curyophyllew. ¥. Pax, who monographed the Caryophyllacew, 
for Engler and Prantl’s Nat. Pflanzenfam. (1889), places the whole Family /Ulecebracew, 
including Dysphania and Scleranthus, under Caryophyllucen.
