GLOSSOLOGY. 
BOOK III. 
18. Emarginate {emarginatus) ; having a notch at the end, as if a 
piece had been taken out ; as the leaf of Buxus sempervirens. 
19. -f 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 (prcemorsus^ 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. f Daedaleous (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. f Blunt ('I' hebetatus, De Cand.) ; having a soft obtuse ter- 
mination. 
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 were 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

.. 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.
