A glabrescent shrub, 6 2/3- 10 ft., growing in marshy places, with slender branches: lvs. oval or elliptical, obtuse at both ends or acutish at the base, emarginate or retuse at the apex,on both sides subglabrous and opaque: peduncles usually solitary, slender, about 1 in. long, minutely bracteolate at the base: corolla and calyx silky-hirtellous; corolla-wings obovate-orbicular, widely spreading, laterally compressed: fr. solid, about 1-1 1/5 in. diam., ovate-globose, with the component carpels scarcely at all raised or distinctly outlined.—This species, very common in S. Brazil and Paraguay, is based upon specimens collected in the province of Rio Grande do Sul by Sellow.

  Rollinia glaucescens, Sond. A glabrescent shrub closely allied to R. emarginata, but with the lvs. not emarginate and sometimes acute at the apex: lf .-blades ovate or lanceolate, obtuse or rarely acute at the apex, acute at the base, 2-3 in. long and 1 in. broad, glaucescent beneath; petioles 1/5-2/5in. long: peduncles in pairs, one shorter than the other, the longer one bearing a small bracteole below the middle: fls. canescent-puberulous; corolla-wings broadly obovate or suborbicular, widely spreading: fr. broadly ovoid or subglobose, small (about 1 in. diam.), solid and smooth, with the component carpels scarcely outlined and not at all gibbous.— Specimens in the U.
