Abies Prunoniana , in which the scales were transformed into leaf¬ 
bearing branches. Erom the various modifications in length, and 
union of these organs, M. Parlatore is led to regard the fruit- 
scale as formed of the connate leaves of an axillary branch, the 
axis of which remains extremely short. He is also of opinion, 
that in several genera of Coniferae, the leaves are adnate to the 
branches through a portion of their extent; that which is gene¬ 
rally taken as the leaf being but its apical portion.
