Branched or unbranched rigid annual herb 9–40(100) cm. tall, with a ± simple root; stem densely covered with spreading white hairs. Leaf blades 2–5.5 cm. x 1.2–5.5 mm., very narrowly elliptic-lanceolate, acute at the apex, narrowed at the base into the stipule sheath, with scattered long hairs above and on the midnerve beneath or ± entirely glabrous save for the obscurely scabrid margins; midrib and margins distinctly thickened, white; stipules often white, base 4 mm. long, hairy, bearing 5–9 fimbriae 6.5 mm. long. Flowers in very dense terminal heads consisting of several condensed nodes, the leaves of which form radiating bracts, often without any further flowers at lower nodes but if so then these are smaller heads terminating undeveloped lateral branches; bracts of 2 sorts, one leaf-derived, 5–7 x 1.5–2 mm., ovate-lanceolate, hyaline at the base, stiff and green at the apex, the others stipule-derived of narrow thin fimbriae 3 mm. long from a narrow base. Calyx tube 2 mm. long, narrowly oblong, hairy above; lobes 4,1.5 mm. long, filiform, hairy. Corolla greenish or white; tube, 1 mm. long, funnel-shaped; lobes 0.6 mm. long, 0.4 mm. wide, ovate-triangular. Filaments exserted 0.5 mm. Style 1.3 mm. long; stigma 0.2 mm. wide. Capsule 3 x 1.2 mm. compressed-cylindrical, with a median furrow, hairy in upper half. Seeds pale brown, 1.8 x 0.7 x 0.4 mm., oblong-ellipsoid, shiny.

Reference Sources
A large genus of worldwide distribution in the tropics and subtropics, with some 150–250 species according to various estimates, mainly American but with many species in Africa and some also in most tropical and subtropical areas; many have become weeds of cultivation.
Annual or perennial herbs or small subshrubs, with glabrous, pubescent, hispid or scabrid very often 4-angled prostrate to erect stems. Leaves opposite or falsely whorled, sessile or petiolate, the petioles often united with the stipule-sheath, which is mostly divided into 1-many ± filiform fimbriae. Flowers mostly small or occasionally medium-sized, hermaphrodite, not heterostylous (except in sect. Galianthe (Griseb.) K. Schum. which does not occur in Africa), sessile, mostly in axillary ± globose often very many-flowered clusters or less often in terminal capitula, supported by 1–2(-more) pairs of leaves forming bracts, or 1-few in the axils (some extra-African species have extensive terminal inflorescences); sometimes the axillary nodal clusters run together to form a spike-like inflorescence the leaf pairs forming scattered or congested bracts; the flowers in the globose clusters are frequently intermixed with numerous ± scarious filiform bracteoles. Calyx-tube obovoid, turbinate or obconic; lobes 2–4(–8), mostly triangular, oblong or lanceolate, often ± persistent, sometimes with intermediate denticles. Corolla funnel-shaped or salver-shaped, the tube sometimes very slender; throat glabrous to hairy; lobes (3–)4, mostly spreading, valvate. Stamens 4, the filaments inserted in the tube or at the throat, the linear to oblong anthers included or mostly exserted. Ovary 2-locular, the amphitropous ovules solitary in each locule, attached to the middle of the septum; style filiform, mostly exserted; stigma capitellate or with 2 short lobes. Fruit mostly a 2-valved capsule dehiscing from the apex downwards with the septum disappearing (in sect. Borreria (G. F. W. Mey.) Verdc.) or sometimes 2-coccous, one dehiscent but the other remaining ± closed (sect. Spermacoce) or in a few species (sect. Arbulocarpus (Tennant) Verdc.) the capsule splitting from the base upwards but valves remaining attached by the calyx-limb which is not split across, the whole falling off like a lid, a persistent septum being left behind. Seeds oblong, ellipsoid or ovoid, usually shining brown with a thin often clearly reticulate testa, ventrally grooved; albumen horny or fleshy.
