In the Pistia type the suspensor is suppressed; in the Lilium type it becomes massive and meristematic; in the Orchid type it is developed as a special haustorium that passes out of the ovule on account of the lack of endosperm, and perhaps for the same reason the embryo does not reach the stage of differentiating organs. There have been observed certain departures from the mon- ocotyledonous type of embryo that deserve special 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 Coulter, John Merle, 1851-1928; Chamberlain, Charles Joseph, b. 1863.
