A head (capitulum) composed of semi-florets is called semi-flosculose (Dandelion); one with tubular florets in the centre, and ligulate ones in the cir- cumference, is rayed (c. radiatum, Ghrysanthem'tim, Marigold). All other irregular monopetalous corollas are considered to be anomalous (c. anomala).
