Flowers in axillary clusters or umbellate, cymules mostly bisexual, usually with distinctly pedicellate staminate flowers and subsessile or shorter pedicellate pistillate flowers, calyx-lobes mostly 5–6, without disc. Staminate flowers: sepals biseriate, often green or yellowish, spreading; stamens 2–8, united into a ellipsoid or oblong column, shorter than the sepals, the connectives exserted at tip, anthers longitudinally dehiscent; pistillode usually none or very minute between the anthers. Pistillate flowers: sepals sometimes erect, tubular and unequal; styles often connate into a short thick cylindrical column, lobed or toothed at summit, rarely free; ovary cells 3–15. Fruit a depressed-globose capsule of 3 or more 2-valved crustaceous cocci, each 2-seeded, suppressed or intruded at tip. Seeds hemispherical or laterally compressed.
