MacLeod saw a short-tongued bee, a hover-fly, and a Muscid in the Pyrenees (Bot. Jaarb. Dodonaea, Ghent, iii, 1891, p. 427). 847. D. integrifolia Vahl.—Warming observed this species in Greenland, and states that both hermaphrodite and male flowers occur there (' Bestovningsmaade af. Fig. 113.

The hermaphrodite flowers are homoga- mous or slightly protogynous, or even slightly protandrous : automatic self-pollination can readily take place. (Cf. Fig. 113.) 247. Geum L. Flowers yellow; protogynous or rarely homogamous; with concealed nectar secreted in the receptacle. Sometimes androdioecious or andromonoecious. 848. G. rivale Z. (Herm.
