THE PETIOLE. 



a. Its presence. 



Once more we have to deal with variables. For example, it is probable that in 

 some oases quoted the record " Slightly petiolate : ' will, with further experience, turn 

 out to be " Sessile.'' The tendency is for the records of petioles to indicate diminished 

 length in juvenile leaves as we get to know more about .them, and, as regards the truly 

 petiolate ones, for us to find that the petioles become increased in length. In some 

 cases, the same species may appear in more than one list. 



We, therefore, in this particular enumeration, can only take cognisance of those 

 juvenile leaves which are — 



1. Slightly petiolate. 



2. Petiolate. 



3. Petiolate very long, and, as an exceptional case, 



4. Peltate.
