Abstract
Abstract The Oxyoides is a Family of Plants, whose Flower and Fruit are altogether like those of the Oxys; that is, the Flower is compleat, regular, polypetalous and hermaphrodite; containing the Ovary, which afterwards becomes, as in the Oxys, a five-cornered Fruit, divided into five Cells, filled with small Seeds; each of which is covered by a Membrane, like a Hood, which opens, when ripe; and by an elastic Motion, makes the Seed leap out.
