This agrees in every respect with the genns Elaocmpm, except that the petals are bilid, not tnfid and
kcoratedTuor are the anthers setigerous. Indeed, the hifid petals might seem a t first to remove .t from
this Order, with which, however, it otherwise entirely accords.

This species differs from Ilex, and from all tbe other genera of the groupe, hy the cells of the gennen and
rays of the stigma being twice as numerous as the segments of the calyx and corolla. We have not seen
the mature fruit, but, judging from tlie specimens before us, suppose it a berry. The stigma is very remarkable,
and only to be compared with that of the geuus Papaver.
