Staphylea. Turpinia. Staphyleacea, joined by De Candolle to Celustrinecs, are connected with them by the pqlypetalouS isostemonous corolla, imbricate sestivation, fleshy disk on which the petals and stamens are inserted, as- cending and anatropous ovules, woody stem and stipulate leaves; but Celasirinece have simple and alternate leaves, usually arillate seeds, and a copious albumen. A still more legitimate affinity links Staphykacece with SapmdacetB and Acerineis; ior in the latter the petals are imbricate, and inserted, like the stamens, on a fleshy, hypogynous disk, the ovary is two-lobed and of two carpels, the fruit is a capsule, the seeds are ascending, and scarcely or not albuminous, the stem is woody, and leaves opposite. There is the same relationship with Sapindacece, in many genera of which the leaves are stipulate, though not Please note that these images are extracted from sca
