FIGURE 8. The Lecythis chartacea clade. A–E. L. chartacea (A–C based on Mori et al. 26485, D–F based on Nee & Mori 4199). G–K. L. gracieana (see Fig. 19 in Mori & Lepsch-Cunha, 1995 for vouchers). L. L. holcogyne (see Fig. IV-1 in Mori, 1987 for voucher). A. Medial section of flower. Note that the vestigial stamens arise from the apex of the ligule and are swept inwards. B. Lateral view of ovary with all other floral parts removed. Note the geniculate style. C. Cross-section of 4-locular ovary. D. Lateral view of fruit. E. Operculum. F. Two seeds. The salient major veins run parallel to the main axis of the seed and the secondary veins depart from them into the area between the major veins. G. Apical view of flower. H. Lateral view of flower showing petals tightly pressed against androecium making it difficult for all but robust bees to enter the flower. I. Medial section of an androecium showing vestigial stamens swept inward. J. Medial section of ovary. Note obliquely oriented style. K. Cross-section of 4-locular ovary. L. Medial section of androecium showing swept inward vestigial stamens (a) and anterior hood extension (b). Drawings A–C by C. Carollo, the remaining by B. Angell, and the photographs by S. A. Mori.
