estimation, the length of the pedicelli is very different, one ot 
the longest amounts to 12 m.m., others are shorter and decrease 
to none; in fact there is a portion in one of the two specimens 
which is quite normal with respect to the size and the shape 
of the florets. 
That the erratic floret has a much stouter structure than the 
normal one and about 5 times its size (fig. 360), is in perfect 
harmony with the general enlargement, only the calyx shows 
- and additional disturbance viz. a different shape and much 
firmer structure. Also the relation between tube and the teeth 
is different, the latter being relatively shorter but firmer and 
bent outward. 
The corollas, not yet wholly developed, the stamens and the 
pistil, although enlarged, proved on examination fairly normal. 
Finally we found that some of the peduncles instead of being 
single flowered have assumed the appearance of an inflorescence 
with 3—10 flowers. One of these showed the properties of a 
forked cyme, one of an unforked, a third the shape of a raceme. 
Also bracts were present though without a distinct connection 
with the florets. Two of these branchlets showed bracts which 
tended to transformation into ordinary leaves.

From the tube of the corolla rises a peduncle of 13 m.m., 
bearing at top a flower with long pointed sepals, a somewhat 
disturbed corolla, two stamens tending to petalody and another 
peduncle with incomplete flower (median floral prolification). 
The calyx of all the flowers is pitchershaped and oblique and 
make the impression of being hypertrophic.
