The sclerites are all thin and .scale-like and provided with small spines which, especially at the ends, give the edges a finely ilenticulate ajipearence (as indicated on fig. 48 a), and they are all of about the .same type, derived from an oblong form, with rounded ends ami constricted middle, as shown in fig. 48 6, e. In the coenenchyma of the .stem and branches the .scales form a close overlapping layer which in the lower ])art of the .stem may be three sclerites thick, but in the branches is mainly oiUy one sclerite thick. The scales from the stem may reach a length of mm and a width of mm; besides these, however, scales of the same type as those from the branches are found which, though they may reach the .same length as the largest IVcnn the stem, are always much narrower.
