In C. stylosa, of which a genus Phmpsis has been made, the whole inflorescence resembles a capitule; it is, also, as in many species of Asperula proper, formed of contracted cymes, arranged on a shortened principal axis. The style is here divided into two branches, but free only at the extreme summit. Thus constituted, the genus Asperula is formed of herbs from the temperate > regions of Europe, Asia,^.
