122 OF THE DIFFERENT 



branches from the summits of the for- 

 mer ones*, as in the Scotch Fir, Pinus 

 sylvestris, Lambert's Pinus, t. 1. and Ly- 

 copodium annotinum, Engl. Bot. 1. 1727* 

 This is obsolete, and seldom used. 



Determinate ramosus, abruptly branched, 

 when each branch, after terminating in 

 flowers, produces a number of fresh 

 shoots in a circular order from just below 

 the origin of those flowers. This term 

 occurs frequently in the later publications 

 of Linnaeus, particularly the second 

 Mantissa, but I know not that he has 

 any where explained its meaning. It is 

 exemplified in Azalea nudiflora. Curt. 

 Mag. t. 180, Erica TetralLr, Engl 

 Bot. t. 1014, many Cape Heaths, and 

 other shrubs of the same Natural Order. 



Articulatus, jointed, as in Samphire, Sa- 

 licornia annua, Engl. Bot. t. 415, and 

 more remarkably in the Indian Figs, 

 Cactus Tuna, &c. 



In shape the Stem is 



Teres, round, as in Trollius europaus, 



*Linn. Phil. Bot. sect. 82. 28.
