date, F. religiosa. 



Leaves membranous to chartaceous, rarely rigidly coriaceous, glabrous or 

 usually more or less hairy. Receptacles rarious, sessile or peduncled, often 

 narrowed or constricted in a stalk, the mouth usually furnished with more 

 than 3 scales, mriously arranged and sometchat spreading or erect (never 

 closely oppressed) , so as to shetc also the inner scales, occasionally aelditional 

 scales arising from the circumference of the receptacle itself. Male flowers
