Samuel Johnson's Dictionary
Stamineousadjective
Etymology: stamineus, Latin.
Stamineous flowers are so far imperfect as to want those coloured leaves which are called petala, and consist only of the stylus and the stamina; and such plants as do bear these stamineous flowers John Ray makes to constitute a large genus of plants: these he divides into such as, first, have their fruit or seed totally divided from the flower; and these are such plants as are said to be of different sexes: the reason of which is, that from the said said some plant shall arise with flowers and no fruit, and others with fruit and no flowers; as hops, hemp, stinging nettles.
2. Such as have their fruit only a little disjointed from their flowers; as the ricinus, and the heliotropium triconon.
3. Such as have their fruit immediately contiguous, or adhering to their flower.
4. Such whose flowers adhere to the top or uppermost of the seed; as the beta, asarum, and alchimilla.
