15. In rows (serialis) ; arranged in rows which are not neces- 
sarily opposite each other : biserialis, in two rows ; triserialis, 
in three rows : but these are seldom used. In their stead, 
we generally add fariam to the end of a Latin numeral : 
thus, bifariam means in two rows ; trifariam, in three rows ; 
and so on. 
16. One-sided (u?iilateralis, secundus) ; arranged on, or turned 
towards, one side only ; as the flowers of Antholyza. 
17. Clustered (aggregatus, coacervatus, conglomeratus) ; collected 
in parcels, each of which has a roundish figure; as the flowers 
of Cuscuta, Adoxa, Trientalis, &c. 
18. Spiral (spiralis); arranged in a spiral manner round some 
common axis ; as the flowers of Spiranthes. 
19. Decussate (decussatus) \ arranged in pairs that alternately 
cross each other ; as the leaves of many plants. 
20. Fastigiate (fastigiatus) ; when all the parts are nearly 
parallel, with each pointing upwards to the sky ; as the 
branches of Populus fastigiata, and many other trees. 
21. Squarrose (squarrosus) ; when the parts spread out at right 
angles, or thereabouts, from a common axis ; as the leaves of 
some mosses, the involucra of some Compositse, &c. 
22. Fasciated ( fasciatus) ; when several contiguous parts grow 
unnaturally together into one ; as the stems of some plants, 
the fruits of others, &c. 
23. Scaly {squamosus) ; covered with small scales, like leaves. 
24-. Starved [depauperatus) ; when some part is less perfectly 
developed than is usual with plants of the same family. Thus, 
when the lower scales of a head of a Cyperaceous plant pro- 
duce no flowers, then scales are said to be starved.
