Reticulated, Annular, and Spiral Ducts (Fig. 60-65), on the other hand (called Trachea, from their resemblance to the windpipe,or rather to the trachete or air-tubes of insects), have been distin-guished by Morren and Lindley under the general name of Trachen-chyma. In these the markings, at least in most cases, are thicker FIG. 56. Fortion of a dotted duct from the Vine, evidently made up of a series of short cells. FIG. 57. Fart of a smaller dotted duct, showing no appearance of such composition. FIG. 58. Scalariform ducts of a Fern, rendered prismatic by mutual pressure. FIG. 59. Similar duct of a Fern, torn into a spiral VASCULAR TISSUE. 47
