The si:)ccimen of Celtis which was chosen for study is . in the arroyo below and to the east of the Laboratory A branch about 2 m. in lenofth was selected and sections made at the followinq- distances from the tip: 6, 21, 34, 49, 64, 79, 144, and 178 cm. The parts of the branch where the sec-tions were made hadthe following- diame-ters: 2, ,4, , 6,8, mm. and 1 cm., section of a branch2 mm. in diameter and6 cm. from the tipshows the following-ijeneral structiiral re-lations : Cortex: There areseveral well - definedcortical divisions.
