ANTHOOAEPO0S OR AGGREGATED FrUITS. These fruits have been named Antlwcarpous, as they consist not only of the mature carpels of several flowers united, but also usually of the bracts and floral envelopes in combination with them ; that is to say, the whole inflorescence becomes succulent or woody, and all its parts are united to form the fruit. They have been called also Multiple, Aggregated and Collective fruits. Sometimes they are alluded to as poly thalamic, to distinguish them from fruits formed from single flowers, which are called imonothalam, Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Green, J.
