Having thus explained the differences of surface produced within 

 itself, we have yet to notice those caused by individual substances 

 lying upon or attached to it. 



GLABROUS (glabrum), is a uniform surface, without this distinction, 

 when according to rule hair Qz7z) clothes it. 



PILOSE (pilosum), when covered with dispersed, somewhat long and 

 bent hairs. 



HAIRY (hirtum, hirsutum), when densely covered with short stiff hairs. 



VILLOSE (villosum), when densely covered with long slender hairs, 

 which rise upright. 



PUBESCENT (pubescens), when the hair is soft, short, and decumbent. 



CRINITE (crinitum), when the hair is very long, slender, and dis- 

 persed. 



SERICEOUS (sericeum, kolosericeum) , when short shining hairs lie 

 closely to the surface, resembling silk or satin in splendour. 



LANUGINOSE (lanuginosum), when longish curled hair is dispersed 

 over the surface. 



TOMENTOSE (tomentosum) , when longish curled hair stands densely 

 and interwoven. 



SETOSE (setosum), with dispersed long stiff hair. 



CILIATE (ciliatum), when fringed with short stiff hair. 



PINNATE (pinnatum), when stiff hairs, or thorny processes, occupy 

 the opposite sides of a thin shank. 



SQUAMOSE (squamosum), when covered with small broad scales which 

 lap over each other ; such a scale with a short stalk is called squama. 

 When these scales are square the surface is called TESSELATED (tesse- 

 iatum\ PRUINOSE (pruinose}, when covered with minute dust, scarcely 

 discoverable by the lens ; FARINOSE (farinosum'), when the dust is more 

 perceptible, resembling flour, and removed by the least touch; POLINOSE 

 ( polinosurnj, this dust, when yellow, like the pollen of flowers ; PUL- 

 VERULENT (pulverulenittm), RORULENT (rorulentum), express very 

 similar, scarcely precisely distinguishable qualities ; LUTOSE (lutosuni), 

 apparently or absolutely covered with dirt *; NAKED (nudum], a surface 

 without either a scaly or dusty covering. 



* Many beetles that live upon a clay soil are always thus covered with dirt; for 

 the sppric<i of the prncni Arida, Melcnt rariolosus.
