The ovules, also, belonging to the two different cells may even touch each other to a variable extent. In the true Goussarea, they are supported by a very short common erect column. The calyx is gamosepalous, entire, truncate or 4-dentate. In those named Faramea, the calyx presents the sarae variations, or is almost nil; but the column supporting the ovules.
