longiuseulis flavis, stigmatibus aureis; alis capsule roseo-purpureæ

duplo excedente; petalis oblongis; antheris (quas vidi) cassis, i. e. 
polline destitutis. 
The development of the leaflets, which sometimes cover the plant to 
the amount of a thousand, is analogous to that of the scales on the 
petioles of a Fern. On the margin and apex of these leaflets, which at 
first are hair-shaped, cells are produced, single or united into groupes 
- (8-6), often gland-like, and filled with a yellowish juice. One common 
cell often envelopes one of these little groupes, and afterwards peels off. 
The whole process seems to have the greatest analogy with the forma- 
tion of leaves on the petioles of Ferns (e. g. Asplenium fecundum or 
Polypodium effusum).
