A distinct line of vegetative advance is shown by the Junger- manniales, in which successive steps may be found from the thalloid state, through various forms of marginal lobes, to a full leafy develop- ment. In the truly leafy Liverworts there is a ventral row of leaves, and a row of lateral leaves on either side. These leaves are more or less clearly two-lobed, and the lobes are often unequal (Fig. 369, -l â Sometimes a lobe may become highly specialised, as in Frullania (Fig. 369, B), where that which is downward-directed develops as a water-sac, or pitcher, effective in collecting and holding water in this epiphytic or rock-dwelling genus. On the other hand, in Trichocolea.
