232 Contribution to a Statistical Study of the CnicifeiYe 
From these raw data we can see that the inner whorl of the aiidroecium is the 
whorl most subject to variation and further that this variation is in the direction 
of a decrease in number.

Class II : Perianth abnormal. 
Variations in the members of the perianth (cal3-x and corolla) have necessitated 
the introduction of new symbols in the diagrams. These are shown in the com- 
posite diagram Plate I, fig. 10, and are explained on p. 257. 
It will be evident from Table H, p. 233, that the same type of variation in the 
androecium occurs with different types of variation in the perianth, e.g. in the 
second and fifth figures no fewer than six different variations in the perianth 
accompany a single type of variation in the androecium. Reference to the 
diagrams in the plates will show what these variations are and will render a 
detailed explanation unnecessary. The asterisk in Table H under LXXVIII 
indicates that there has been adhesion between stamen 1 and one of the 
stamens in position 3.4, in other words between one of the members of the 
outer whorl and one of the members in the inner whorl. 
Class III. 
The members of this class are characterised by a reduplication of the various 
organs but without separation into two distinct flowers. There are in all 11 
individuals with 10 different types of variation. A word of explanation is 
necessary^ with regard to the interpretation of the position of the various stamens
