Balsamocitrus (Latin, balsamum, balsam, and citrus). Rutaceae, tribe Citreae. Trees; usually spiny, suggested as stocks for citrous fruits; as yet scarcely known in this country.
Fruits hard-shelled and persistent: Lvs. trifoliolate, or rarely simple: fls. 4-5-parted; stamens 10-20; ovary 8-9-celled; ovules numerous in each cell; seeds large, smooth ; hypocotyl very short, the cotyledons remaining near or just above the surface of the ground. The first foliage Lvs. are opposite, lanceolate or ovate.—Three species are known, all occurring in Trop. Afr. B. Dawei is the type species.
The subgenus Afraegle (Latin, Africa and Aegle) differs from Balsamocitrus proper in having more than twice as many (usually 4 times as many) stamens as petals and in having a larger, more deeply lobed disk. B. paniculata is the type of this subgenus.
