- Morphology General Habit
- Annual to perennial small to rather tall herbs with a taproot, sometimes also with root-runners or adventive roots from stem-nodes, practically glabrous to pubescent with unicellular simple pointed hairs
- Morphology Stem
- Stems prostrate to erect, usually much branched
- Morphology Leaves
- Leaves membranous, usually pinnatifid to pinnate, often auriculate
- Morphology Reproductive morphology Inflorescences
- Racemes terminal, less often axillary, with or without bracts, nearly corymbose, with numerous rather small to small flowers, in fruit cylindrical and lax
- Morphology Reproductive morphology Flowers Calyx
- Sepals greenish, elliptic, not saccate, spreading
- Morphology Reproductive morphology Flowers Corolla
- Petals yellow or white, equalling or up to ± twice as long as the sepals
- Morphology Reproductive morphology Flowers Androecium Stamens
- Stamens 6, distinctly tetradynamous, with linear filaments; anthers ovate to oblong, yellow, blunt
- Morphology Reproductive morphology Flowers Nectaries
- Nectarial tissue ± surrounding the lateral filament-bases, usually also extending outside the median ones but sometimes lacking there (as in species 5 and 6)
- Morphology Reproductive morphology Flowers Gynoecium Ovary
- Ovary spheroid to narrowly cylindrical, with numerous ovules
- Morphology Reproductive morphology Fruits
- Fruits terete, very variable in shape (globose to narrowly linear), without or rarely with a very short gynophore, usually with a short but distinct style and flat to slightly bifid stigma, dehiscent by 2 valves, with very fine or no observable midnerve
