These vessels may be entirely scalariform in structure, or may change gradually from a reticulate type at their tapering ends to decidedly scalariform throughout the greater part of their horizontal and vertical extent. As they extend horizontally through the gap they are arranged in order of formation, one vessel beneath the other (figs. 4, 5), the.
