The histology of the rhizome of Ruellia is as follows: epidermalcells, tangentially elongated, the outer walls being much thickened;outer cortical layer composed of parenchyma cells, having collen-chymatous thickenings of the wall, and cystolith-containing cells;inner cortical zone made up of thin-walled parenchyma, leptome andsclereids or strongly lignified, elongated stone cells having thick,porous and lamellated walls; endodermis distinct; xylem composedof a compact zone of porous tracheae, and wood fibers; pith consisting 532 SCIENTIFIC AND APPLIED PHARMAC
