Ser. xii. 149. Diagnosis.—Campcaml Exogens, with a 2- or more-celled ovary, syngenesious anthers, astigma surrounded hy hairs, and a valvate inrgular corolla. Herbaceous plants or shrubs, with milky juice. Leaves alternate, without axillary or tex-minal. Calyx superior, 5-lobed or entire. Corolla monopetalous,. 1 Fig. CCCCLXV. 4 .5 2 in aestivation somewhat valvate, uTegular, inserted in the calyx, 5-lobed or deeply 5, inserted into the calyx alternately \Ai\\ the lobes of the corolla ; antherscohering ; pollen oval. Ovary inferior, with from 1 to 3 cells ; o^Tiles very numerous,either attached to the axis, or parietal; style simple, stigma surroimded by a cup-like capsular, 1- or more-celled, many-seeded, dehiscing at the apex. Seeds attachedeither to the lining or the axis of the pericarp ; embryo straight, in the axis of fleshyalbumen ; radicle longer than the cotyledons, pointing to the hilum. The plants of this Order at first sight appear to be very different from Composites, butthey in fact participate in all the analogies of Bellworts, and perhaps are yet morenearly related to Composites even than that Order, especially in their sj-ngenesio
