. The natural history of plants, their forms, growth, reproduction, and distribution;. Botany. Kg. 427.—Daphnales. I Camjphora ojicinarum (Family Lauraceas), flowering branch. 2 Longitudinal section through the flower of Cmntmifynvum Zeytanicum (Family Lauraceee). 3 Flower of Daphne Mezerewm (Family Thymelacese) cut open and rolled back • reduced: 2 and s magnified. (Partly after Baillon.) outside and strong within, the result is a false drupe. In some of the Lauracese also, as, for instance, in Nectandra, the receptacle continues to grow with the fruit, and forms a cup-shaped envelope resembling the so-called cupule in the fruit of the Oak. In Thymelacese and Lauracese the ovule is pendulous (see fig. 427^), in Elseagnacese it is erect. The Daphnales are scattered over all parts of the earth. The Thymelacese are best represented in countries where the climate is temperate; the Cape and Australia are particularly rich in species of that family. Daphne striata attains its highest elevation in the Central Alps at 2500 metres. There is a striking concentration of several species of the genus Daphne on a strictly limited area in the mountainous parts of Southern Europe. One of these species is the plant known in Carniola under the name of the Konigsblume (Daphne Blagayana), VOL. II. 98.
