Fig. 193. —Papilionaceous corolla of Laburnum- I- Seen laterally. II. In front. III. Standard. IV. Left wing seen from without. V. Keel. or two-lipped, as in the Dead-nettle (fig. 191). Of this there are two forms: if the lips are wide apart, as in the Dead-nettle, it is ringent; if closed, as in the Snapdragon (fig. 192), it is personate; papilionaceous or butterfly-shaped, as in the La- burnum and other members of the Pea-flower tribe (fig. 193). In this case there are five petals, one overlooking the rest, the standard ox vexilium {fig. 193, in.); onestandingouton each side, the wings or ales (fig. 193, iv.); and two united surrounding the stamens, the keel ox carina (fig. 193, v.). In some cases, as in many of the Orchids, there is a most irregular shape of corolla which has received no special name. The term caryophyllaceous is applied to the corolla as it is met with in the Pink tribe (figs. 194 and 195), when there are five.
