MEMOIRS OF THE NEW YORK BOTANICAL GARDEN [VOL. 35
1982] CASSIINAE—CASSIA commonly malodorous, gelatinous pulp drying to a brittle blackish pitch free from the seed, or b) a fibrous-suberous coin-shaped envelope ultimately detached from the valves but enveloping the seed; seed-funicle filiform; aril 0; seeds obovoid- elUpsoid biconvex, in all but C. hintoni lying transverse, broadside to the septa, obcompressed, the punctiform hilum near base on one broad face, in C. hintoni basipetal, broadside to the valves, laterally compressed, the hilum sub-basal on one rim, the testa in aU smooth lustrous exareolate; endosperm copious; coty ledons irregularly corrugated, epigeal in germination.—Trees, some precociously flowering as shrubs, some reaching large size. Phyllotaxy either spiral or distichous. Pubescence of simple and sometimes partly of minute thickened discolored trichomes. Stipules either simple or 2-lobed, usually caducous. Lvs paripinnate, the pulvinulate Ifts either small and numerous (±10-25 pairs) or few and larger. Inflorescence racemose, basically determinate, terminal to either hornotinous leafy branchlets or to greatly shortened leafless branchlets arising (singly or gem inate) from annotinous branches below current foliage, the latter appearing to be simple cauliflorous racemes. Pedicels laterally compressed, subtended by a bract and furnished at or shortly above base on either side by a simUar but smaUer bractlet, these aU either caducous or persistent into anthesis. x = 12, 14. We here formaUy adopt the restricted definition of genus Cassia that we proposed at the Legume Conference at Kew in 1978 (Irwin & Barneby, 1981, p. 105). The true cassias differ from the sennas, which formed the major element of the Linnaean genus Cassia and subsequently came to dominate botanists' concept of that genus, in the basically determinate (not lateral axillary) inflorescence, bibracteolate pedicels and characteristic androecium. The androecia of Cassia and Senna are superficially simUar in their bUateral symmetry and in the inequality of their members, which dwindle from front to back of the flower, but the organization ofthe stamens is different. In Cassia sens. str. the three long abaxial stamens are antesepalous, members of the lower whorl of five; in Senna the two longest are antepetalous, members ofthe upper whorl. In Cassia the four stamens of medium length belong to the antepetalous whorl, two of them standing erect from between the long sigmoid ones, whereas in Senna the four median ones stand together in pairs, one of each pair antepetalous and one antesepalous. The dorsally attached, versatile anthers of Cassia, which dehisce both ventrally by distal sht and basally by a pore, are grossly different from the basifixed anthers of Senna, which dehisce only terminally. These differences between Cassia and Senna are definitive and constant, forming a morphological discontinuity uni formly encountered on all continents. As a syndrome they equal or surpass any generic criterion widely accepted in the taxonomy of Leguminosae. Cassia differs from Senna in the fruit also, but here and in the seeds the difference is not absolute. The pod of Cassia is indehiscent and with one exception (C. hintoni) multicellular by stiff adventitious septa between the seeds, which lie horizontal to the long axis of the pod and are obcompressed, with hUum at foot of one broad face. The pod of Senna commonly dehisces along one or both sutures, but the orientation and compression of the seeds is variable. In Cassia hintoni the interseminal septa are poorly developed and the seed is at once obhquely basipetal and laterally compressed, with hilum near base of one rim like Fig. 2. Pods of genus Cassia (all xVi): C. grandis Linn. f. {W. D. Stevens 6157); C. leiandra Benth. (M. Silva 757); C. fistula Linn. {S. Stein 1); C. javanica var. indochinensis Gagnep. {S. Stein 8).
