. Botany for academies and colleges: consisting of plant development and structure from seaweed to clematis. Botany; 1889. 120 ACADEMIC (1) confluence (the ninning together of the two cells), as in the Gam- boge (Fig. 169, c) and Marsh-Mallow, or through (2) obliteration (the entire disappearance. of one cell), as in the Canna, or through (3) separation, in which the two cells are separated by a long, trans- veree connective, as in the Sage (Fig. 168, D), the anther being Dimidiate (L. cut in half). The an- ther of the Mistletoe (Fig. 65, B) is many-celled (pluriloeular), and opening by pores. 265. The Forms are as variable as those of leaves; the descriptive terms are nearly the same. The Oleander anther is Sagittate (Pig. 168, A); that of the Cucumber Is Flexuose (Fig. 168, C). 266. The Appendages are also innumerable. The TkT iTl.^ollinia (^l^finder connective has a long ciliate plume (Fig. of OrchU. Morio at- 168, A); the filament of the Humirium has glan- tached to the reti- dular teeth (Fig. 168, E). The Milkweed (Fig. 172, So?"een.' «) has a lovely hood and horn. 267. The Dehiscence, or opening, of the anther- lobes is: (1) Circum- scissile (L. cut around) ; here the lobes are cut trans- versely, the upper part serving for a lid, as in the Gam- boge (Fig. 169, c) and the Pyxidan- thera, or Box-anther (Gr. pyxidion, little box), which gets its botanical name from this character. (2) Lotyitudmal; here j.,g 172.—A, fl. of Milkweed {Aeclepias hiberom). B, each cell is marked separate stamen, with its appendages (horn and hood). 0, with a longitudinal gynceoium, with pollinia adherent to the stigma. D, two seam, or Suture, by "^^parate pollinia. which it opens, as in the Hepatica (Fig. 168, G), the Oleander (Fig. 168, A), the Grasses and Lilies; it is the commonest mode. (3) Porous; here the Su- tures remain closed, and each cell opens by a pore at the top, as in the Whortleberry (Fig. 168, F) and the Poran- Fis. 173.—A, Anther of Squash (O
