FORMS OF LEAVES. 1^5 



ments are rounded, as in Anemone Hepatica, Curt, 

 Mag. t. 10. (68) 



Bilobiim, trilobiim, &c., according to the number of 

 the lobes. 



Sinuatum,/. 62, sinuated, cut into rounded or wide 

 openings, as Statice sinuata^ t. 7i, and Firgilia heli- 

 oides, Exot. Bot. t. 37. 



Partititm,/. 63, deeply divided, nearly to the base, as 

 Helleborus viridis, Engl. Bot. t. 200. 

 Bipartitum, tripartitum^ multipartitumj according to 

 the number of the divisions. 



Lac'miatiim^ f. 64, laciniated, cut into numerous irreg- 

 ular portions, as Ranunculus parvijlor us, t. 120, and 

 Geranium columbinum, t. 259. 



Incisum, and Dissectum, cut, are nearly synonymous 

 with the last. 



It is remarked by Linuccus that aquatic plants have 

 their lower, and mountainous ones their upper, leaves 

 most divided, by which they better resist the action 

 of the stream in one case, and of wind in the other. 

 Probably these actions are in some measure the caus- 

 es of such configurations. 



Falmatum,J\ 65, palmate, cut into several oblong, near- 

 ly equal segments, about half way, or rather more, 

 towards the base, leaving an entire space like the 

 palm of the hand, as Passijiora carulea^ Curt, Mag, 

 t. 28. 



Plnnatifidum^f. 66, pinnatifid, cut transversely into sev- 

 eral oblong parallel segments, as in Ipomopsis^ Exot,
