In many plants, Latliynis latifoiia, L. sylvcstris and L. grmidiflonis among others, both stipules and wings occur.

For these reasons the wings are, it seems to me, rather to be regarded as lateral-vertical expansions of the stem than as " decur- rent ; Phototropism To determine the action of the plant towards light a growing shoot was fastened in a dark chamber illuminated from one side only. After fourteen days there was found to be a decided photo-.
