526 SIR JOHN LUBBOCK ON STIPULES, 
ARTOCARPES. 
See Potter, in Journ. Linn. Soe. vol. xxviii. (1891), p. 344, and 
Trécul, “Mémoire sur la famille des Artocarpées,” in Ann. Sci. 
Nat. scr. 3, vol. xiii. p. 88. On p. 44 the latter describes the 
stipules. He says:—“ We find all stages between a simple stipule 
and two separate ones; they are axillary and free; their length 
varies from 1 or 2 mm. to 12 em. (sp. of Ceeropia) and breadth in 
proportion ; they are inserted horizontally or obliquely.” 
MyRriIcacez. 
The ‘Genera Plantarum’ says with reference to this family :— 
“Stipule 0, nisi in WZ. asplenifolia spuriw.” The stipule-like 
organs in this species are subulate, acute, inserted on the side of 
the pedestal, tumid at the base externally, concave internally, 
and channelled to the top on that face. . They fall, as a rule, 
before the leaves. 
JUGLANDEX. 
This order is exstipulate. In Juglans it is seen that the 
several buds which are produced in each leaf-axil are protected 
by the leaf-sheath and the hairy or scarious bud-scales. 
Casimir DeCandolle (Ann. Sci. Nat. sér. 4, t. 18, p. 5) gives 
a short account of these buds; almost all the axillary buds 
abort, the branches being developed from the terminal buds. 
CUPULIFER®. 
In the Nut, Corylus Avellana, Linn., both the leaves and the 
stipules behave in a somewhat peculiar manner in the bud, as 
seen at the apex of the growing shoot in spring. The leaves are 
induplicate in bud or imperfectly conduplicate. The younger 
leaf as it is just leaving the bud lies somewhat above the latter, 
and is induplicate at the edges. The next younger leaf is con- 
duplicate and closely applied to the bud, round which it is slightly 
twisted. , 
The stipules are oblong or oval, more or less deeply concave, 
and arranged in four ranks, two above and two below the spreading 
or horizontal branches, while those of each pair are unequal in 
size. The upper one, that is the one on the upper side of the 
branch, is the larger, and this lies over the leaf which has just left 
the bud. The smaller stipule lies under and protects the bud
