Brunia bullata (Schltr.) Class.-bockh. & E.G.H.Oliv.

Undershrubs with decumbent much branched wiry stems usually forming a tangled mass 1-1.5 cm high. Branchlets slender variably pilose. Leaves mostly 1.5-3 mm long, slightly imbricate, erect, broad-based, ovate or elliptic-ovate, acute, rounded-convex and pilose on the dorsal surface, becoming almost glabrous; the ventral surface deeply concave, glabrous or pilose. Bracteoles opposite, lanceolate, pilose on the dorsal surface, scarcely as long as the calyx-tube. Calyx densely villous on the outer surface: calyx-lobes 0.75 mm long, deltoid-lanceolate, acute. Petals scarcely 1.5 mm long, ovate-lanceolate, acute, shortly incurved at the apex, convex and pilose on the dorsal surface, concave and glabrous on the ventral surface, with short fleshy keels converging at the base. Anthers reaching to the upper half of the petals, scarcely 0.5 mm long, rotund. Ovules angular. Style reaching to the middle of the petals. Fruit elliptic, with 10 acute ridges.
