scen’dens, the root ; ~ Radi’cis, the 
root-tip; ~ re’pens{ = RuIZoME ; 
caud’ici - contin'uus { continuous 
with the stem, used of those leaves 
which have no articulation with the 
stem ; caudic’iform (forma, shape), 
like a caudex in form; Cau’dicle, 
caudic'ula, the cartilaginous strap 
which connects certain pollen-mas- 
ses to the stigma, as in Orchids.

coming stalked, where the stalk is 
clearly apparent ; Caul‘icle, Caul’ic- 
ule, Caulic’ulus, a diminutive stalk ; 
(1) a small stem produced on the 
neck of a root without the previous 
production of a leaf; (2) the imag- 
inary space between the radicle and 
the cotyledons of an embryo, now 
termed the hypocotyl ; (3) the stipe 
of certain Fungi ; caulic’olous (colo, 
I dwell), applied to Fungi which 
live on stems; cauliferous (ero, I 
bear), bearing a stalk; caul/iform 
(forma, shape), having the shape of 
a stalk; Caul’iflower (+ Flower), 
hypertrophy of the flower - stalk, 
accompanied by defective flowers ; 
caulig’enous (yévos, race), arising 
from a stem ; caulig’erous (gero, I 
bear), borne on a stem; Caulid’ium, 
term proposed by Bower to express 
the leaf in the oophore generation ; 
its analogue in the sporophore 
generation is CavLoME; caul'inar,

growing acropetally with the stem, 
having no direct communication 
with the bundles which pass into 
the leaves. 
Cau'lis (Lat.), a stem; the ascendin, 
axis, restricted to the above-groun 
portion in its normal state; ~ de- 
liquese’ens,+ a stem which branches 
irregularly ; ~ excurr’ens, a stem

ing fruit repeatedly, as trees and 
shrubs; Caul’ode (eldos, resem- 
blance), a portion of a Thallophyte 
which simulates a stem; Caulo’ma t 
(1) the stem of a palm ; (2) the stem- 
like portion of such Algae as Fuci ; 
Caul‘ome the stem as an abstract 
entity, the leaf-developing axis; 
Bower suggests its restriction to 
the sporophore generation only; 
Caul’omer (épos,a part), a secondary 
axis in a sympodium; Caulotax’is 
(rdgis, arrangement), the order of 
branches upon a stem, 
caust‘icus (Lat. burning), biting in 
tasté, as Cayenne Pepper.

ing in caves; Cavern'uli, the pores 
of such Fungi as Polyporus. 
Cav'itus + (cavus, hollow), and Cavus 
are given by Lindley as respec- 
tively, the perithecium and peri- 
dium of some Fungi; also Cav’us 
sup’erus, defined by him as the 
hymenium of certain Fungi. 
Cecidi’um (xyxls, a gall), the galls pro- 
duced by Fungi or insects, the con- 
sequence of infection being an 
abnormal growth. 
Cell, Cell’ula (Lat. a small apartment),

plasm, strictly with a single nuc- 
leus, contained in a chamber of 
cellulose, etc., which originally 
was recognised and called cell,
