. Elementary botany : theoretical and practical. A text-book designed primarily for students of science classes connected with the science and art department of the committee of council on education . Botany. Fig. 170.—I. Turbinate. II. Fig. 169.—Tubu- Urceolate calyx (represented lar calyx. diagramraatically).. Fig. 171.—Saccate calyx of LnrntriO'. Sometimes the persistent calyx becomes very much enlarged around the fruit; it is then accrescent, as in the Physalis. There are also certain terms which are used in describing the shape of the calyx which are of great importance in De- scriptive Botany. Thus it may be tubular (fig. 169), as in the Centaury; urceolate (fig. 170, n.) or urn-shaped, as in the Campion; inflated or swollen, as in the Bladder Campion; turbinate or top-shaped (fig. 170, i.) 5 funnel-shaped or infundibuliform (fig. 176), as in the Deadly Nightshade; saccate (fig. 171), if there are four sepals, two of which are prolonged at the base, as in most cruciferous plants; rotate (fig. 164), as in the Straw- berry; bilabiate or two-lipped (fig. 177), as in the Dead-nettle;.
