The Pappus.—The peculiarly divided calyx illustrated in Fig. 79, a, is denomi- nated a Pappus, and this term has been extended to all forms of the calyx (Figs. 74 to 83) existing in that family (the Compositae) and in some others. Fig. 80 illustrates the action of median, as well as of lateral chorisis, in the development of a double pappus, the outer circle being much shorter and different in kind. The several forms of perigone parts corresponding to those of leaves (see leaf-forms) and numerous inter- mediate ones not illustrated, should be carefully considered by the student, as they have a most important bearing upon the forms of the corolla produced by cohesion, which we shall shortly r/ r£ 7S.
