EXPLANATION OP PLATE 63. 
Stigma in the centre of each hexagonal tubercle (a); 
beneath these tubercles is a longitudinal Section of 
the single cells (b), each containing one seed (_/") ; 
and in front of these cells are the hollow bases of 
other cells (c, c) from which seeds have been re- 
moved. (Original.) 
Fig. 9. Another magnified portion, shewing the apices 
of many seeds (e) from which the Epicarpium has 
been removed. (Original.) 
Fig. 10. Another magnified portion, shewing at a, b, c, 
more distinctly the same parts as at Fig. 8 ; and at 
d, the upper portion of the fibrous foot-stalks be- 
neath the bases of the cells, c. (Original.) 
Fig. 11. Summit of one of the drupes or groups of cells 
into which the fruit of the recent Pandanus is 
divided ; shewing an hexagonal disposition of the 
coronary tubercles, each bearing at its centre the 
remains of a stigma, as in the Podocarya. See Figs. 
16. 17. (Original.) 
Fig. 12. Exterior of a single seed-cell of Pandanus odo- 
ratissimus. (Jaquin. Frag. Bot. PI. 14.) 
Fig. 13. Section of a Drupe of Pandanus odoratissimus. 
The central cell containing a seed, is placed between 
two abortive cells. At the apex of each cell in this 
drupe («) is a withered stigma. (Roxborough Coro- 
mandel. PI. 96.) 
Figs. 14, 15. Sections of a Drupe of Pandanus odora- 
tissimus, shewing the seeds within the prolific cells 
surrounded by a hard nut. Beneath this nut is a 
mass of rigid fibres like those beneath the seeds of 
Podocarya. (Jaquin.) 
Fig. 16. Summit of the hexagonal tubercle at the apex 
of a cell of Pandanus humdis, with a withered 
stigma in the centre. (Jaquin. Frag. Bot. PI. 14.)
