' In the descriptions by stem is meant the barren stem of the year ; 

 the prickles are called patent when they spread at right angles to the 

 St., and subpatent when a little declining ; the shape of the leaflets, 

 unless otherwise stated, is taken from those of the barren stem. The 

 term seta is used to express a hair or bristle tipped with a gland; 

 aciculi are strong bristles. — By S. G. the plates in Weihe and Nees's 

 Itnbi Germavici are intended. — See Babington's British JRtibi.
