CLASS I. 
INDIVIDUAL ABSOLUTE TERMS. 
387 
18. Emarginate {emarginatus) ; having a notch at the end, as if a 
piece had been taken out ; as the leaf of Buxus sempervirens. 
19. \ Accisus ; when the end has an acute sinus between two 
rounded angles. Link, 
20. Truncate (truncatus) ; terminating very abruptly, as if a piece 
had been cut off ; as the leaf of Liriodendron tulipifera. 
21. Bitten {jprcemorsuSy f succisus) ; the same as truncate, except 
that the termination is ragged and irregular, as if bitten off : 
the term is generally applied to roots ; the leaf of Caryota urens 
is another instance. 
22. fDedaleous (f dcedaleus) ; when the point has a large circuit, 
but is truncated and rugged. W. 
23. Trident-pointed {tridentatus) ; when the point is truncated, 
and has three indentations (W,)\ as Saxifraga tridentata, 
Potentilla tridentata. 
24. Headed {capitatus) ; suddenly much thicker at the point than 
in any other part : a term confined to cylindrical or terete 
bodies ; as Mucor, glandular hairs, &c. 
25. Lamellar {lamellatus^ lamellosus) ; having two little plates at 
the point, as the style of many plants. 
26. t Blunt (-]- hebetatus, De Cand.) ; having a soft, obtuse termin- 
ation. 
27. Pointless (muticus). This term is employed only in con- 
tradistinction to some other that indicates being pointed ; 
thus, if, in contrasting two things, one was said to be mu- 
cronate, the other, if it had not a mucro, would be called 
pointless ; and the same term would be equally employed in 
contrast with cuspidate or aristate, or any such. It is also 
used absolutely. 
2*. Of Division. 
A. With respect to the margin. 
3 4 5

1. Entire (integer); properly speaking, this means having no 
kind of marginal division ; but sometimes it has been used to 
indicate not pinnatifid, and also nearly destitute of marginal 
division. 
2. Quite entire (integerrimus) ; perfectly free from division of the 
margin.
