Seven species in E. Asia and N. Amer. Interesting shrubs for alpine rockeries, but not particularly ornamental. M. pilosa, Juss. (M. globularis, Salisb.), is sometimes offered by dealers in native plants. Shrub, 2-6 ft.: lvs. oval to oblong- obovate, glandular-mucronate, entire, strigose, ciliate, 1-2 in. long: fls. few, drooping, on slender glandular pedicels; corolla yellowish, often tinged reddish, ¼ in- long; anthers included. May, June. Pa. to Ga. in the mountains. B.M. 1571. For cult., see Andromeda and Rhododendron.

M. caerulea Swartz-Phyllodoce caerulea.—M. empetriformis, Smith- Phyllodoce empetriformis.—M. pentandra, Maxim. Shrub, to 4 ft.: lvs. elliptic: fls. subglobose, greenish white; anthers exserted. Japan.—M. polifolia, Juss.=Daboecia polifolia.
