GENERAL FORM.

61. f Mill-sail-shaped (f molendinaceus) ; having many wings projecting from 



a convex surface ; as the fruit of some umbelliferous plants, and of 

 Moringa. 



62. f Knob-like (f gongylodes) ; having an irregular roundish figure. 



63. Halved (dimidiatus) ; only half, or partially, formed. A leaf is called 

 dimidiate when one side only is perfect ; an anther when one lobe only is 

 perfect ; and so on. 



64. Fan-shaped (flabelliformis); plaited like the rays of a fan ; as the leaf of 

 Borassus flabelliformis. 



65. Grumous (grumosus) ; in form of little clustered grains ; as the root of 



Nidus-avis, Mirb. ; rather as the fsecula in the stem of the Sago Palm. 



66. f Testicular (f testiculatus) ; having the figure of two oblong bodies ; as the 



roots of Orchis mascula.

67. Ringcnt, or personate (ringens, personatus) ; a term applied to a mono- 

 petalous corolla, the limb of which is unequally divided ; the upper division, 

 or lip, being arched ; the lower prominent, and pressed against it, so that 

 when compressed, the whole resembles the mouth of a gaping animal ; as 

 the corolla of Antirrhinum. 



68. Labiate (labiatus) ; a term applied to a monopetalous calyx or corolla, which 

 is separated into two unequal divisions ; the one anterior, and the other 

 posterior, with respect to the axis : hence bilabiate is more commonly used 

 than labiate. Salvia and many other plants afford examples. It is often 

 employed instead of ringent. 



69. Wheel-shaped (rotatus) ; a calyx or corolla, or other organ, of which the 

 tube is very short, and the segments spreading ; as the corolla of Veronica. 



70. Salver-shaped (hypocrateriformis); a calyx or corolla, or other organ, of 



which the tube is long and slender, and the limb flat ; as in Phlox. 



71. Funnel-shaped (infundibular^, infundibuliformis); any organ, in which the 

 tube is obconical, gradually enlarging upwards into the limb, so that the 

 whole resembles a funnel ; as the corolla of Nicotiana. 



72. Bell-shaped (campanulatus, f campanaceus, f campaniformii) ; a calyx, 

 corolla, or other organ, in which the tube is inflated, and gradually enlarged 

 into a limb, the base not being conical ; as the corolla of Campanula. 



73. Pitcher-shaped (urceolatus)\ the same as campanulate, but more contracted 

 at the orifice, with an erect limb ; as the corolla of Vaccinium Myrtillus.
