By the intervention of Kadua and Teinosolen, Bouvardia (fig. 315- 317), generally attributed to quite a different group, is closely allied to Oldenlandia. The flower is almost always tetramerous; the lobes of the calyx dentiform or elongate with tongues often Jioumrdia Jaauim. interposed; the corolla tubular, straight or curved, with valvate lobes, glabrous or hairy within ; anthers dorsifixed, enclosed or exserted; the two stigmatiferous branches of the style are papil- lose on their entire surface or at the margin and interior face. The ovary has two cells each enclosing an erect or ascending placenta attached to the partition by a narrow point and bearing an indefinite number of ascending ovules. The fruit is a loculicidal or septicidal capsule, that is finally divided into fourpannelsj and the seeds, peltate, com- pressed or bordered with a cellular wing, enclose a small albuminous embryo. They are herbs or shrubs of tropical or subtropical America, with opposite or verticillate leaves, connate stipules, and terminal corymbiform Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Baillon, Henri Ernest, 1827-1895; Hartog, Marcus Manuel, 1851-.
