Such plants as the chicory, dandelion, and lettuce, having only ligulate corollas, comprise the family Cichoriaceae. Cichor- iaceas and Compositas (in this restricted sense) have syngenesious anthers. Plants whose florets have tubular corollas only (sometimes none), but anthers not truly syngenesious, comprise the Ambrosiaseae, including the rag-weeds, cockle-bur, marsh-elder (/no), and 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 Gager, C.
