Next to Protea come a pretty large number of genera, of analo- gous structure at bottom, which mostly formed part of the genus Protea at one time, and have been, separated therefrom by modern botanists. The charac- ters in which they differ are but of secondary importance, viz.:—the arrangement of the inflorescences, the form of the perianth and its mode of dehis- cence on anthesis, the diclinism of the flowers, the form of the stigma, the form and consis- tency of the fruit. The genera are, Leucospermum, Mimetes, Aulax, (?) DUobe
