The face of the seed is flat or traversed, like the rest of its surface, with vertical channels, marked with prominent vittse. (Erumlhes are found in all parts of the old world. They are often aquatic herbs, with compound umbels, furnished with numerous bracts, or with only one, or with none. The leaves may be reduced to a rounded petiole as is constantly the case in Crantzia, a small herb found in the two Americas, New Zealand and Australia, having the flowers and fruit of CEnanihe but in simple umbels, which will characterize it as a section. In CE. nodijlora, a Marocco specie^, the fruit is that of (Enanthe, but it has a simple or double carpophore, characteristic of a sec- tion Sclerosciadium, also raised to the rank of a genus, as have likewise been three American ' types, Gynosciadum, Discopleura and Eurytwnia. In the first the petals are entire or nearly so, orbicular, concave; the column is ordinarily simple. The second has a simple or double column, pointed or very slightly developed petals, and the marginal ridges of .the fruit are angular. In the third they are dilated to short wings ; and as they are arranged in pairs they may be considered as connecting the preceding types with certain sections oi Peucedanum.
