Climbing fern (Am.), Lygodinm; -plants abound in trop. forests, 

 where they usu. grow large and woody (lianes}, and are rarer else- 

 where. Four chief groups: (i) twiners, whose tips nutate in search 

 of support, Apios, Apocynaceae, Araliaceae, Aristolochiaceae, Basella, 

 Bauhinia, Bignoniaceae, Bowiea, Calystegia, Camoensia, Ceropegia, 

 Cassytha, Combretaceae, Connaraceae, Convolvulaceae, Cuscuta

 Gnetum, Hoya, Ipomoea, Jasminum, Lardizabalaceae, Loasaceae, 

 Lonicera, Lygodium, Malpighiaceae, Menispermaceae, Phaseolus, 

 Phytocrene, Plumbago, Polygonum, Rhodochiton, Ruscus, Schi- 

 zandra, Solanum, Tamus, Thunbergia, Wistaria; (2) climbers with 

 sensitive organs, usu. tendrils > which may be modified stems, 

 Antigonon, Landolphia, Passiflora, Vitis, leaves, Bignoniaceae, 

 Cucurbitaceae, Cobaea, Corydalis, Leguminosae (Lathyrus, Vicia, 

 &c.), Mutisia, sensitive hooks which clasp and become woody, 

 Ancistrocladus, Artabotrys, Bauhinia, Gouania, Husjonia, Lan- 

 dolphia, Paullinia, Strychno*, Uncaria, Unona, Uvaria ; sensitive I. 

 occur in Gloriosa, Littonia, &c., petioles in Clematis, Dalbergia, 

 Fumaria, Hablitzia, Maurandia, Rhodochiton, Tropaeolum, midrib 

 in Nepenthes, /at, branches in Hippocratea, Macherium, Salacia, 

 Securidaca, Uvaria ; (3) hook climbers, sprawling, and catching by 

 hooks (cf. above), Caesalpinia, Calamus, Capparis, Combretaceae, 

 Desmoncus, Dipladenia, Galium, Hugonia, Lycium, Pereskia, Plecto- 

 comia, Smilax, Ventilago ; (4) root climbers with special negatively 

 heliotropic adv. r. that adhere to the support, Araceae, Araliaceae, 

 Begonia, Bignoniaceae, Clusia, Ficus, Hedera, Hoya, Kendrickia, 

 Norantea, Piper, Rhus, Salacia, Sapindaceae, Tecoma 



Climbers are often of anatomical interest, presenting manyabnormal 

 features, esp. the trop. lianes. For details, see Darwin, Climbing 

 Plants; Schenk, Biologie und Anatomie der Lianen.
