As a character for use in the iden- tification of species it is valueless, because its appearance is due to circumstances not well understood, and is frequently present in some specimens and lacking in others of the same species. Prosenchymatous cells, cells with pointed ends dovetailing into each other. (Fig. 15.) Quadrate cells, cells square or nearly so. (Fig I.) Rosiilate, in the form of a rosette. Rugose, wrinkled (in the case of leaves it is usually applied to tranverse wrinkles); e. g. leaves of Hypnum rugosum. Secund, twisted or turned to one side. (F"ig. 16.) E. g. lea\es of many Hypnums. Not neces- sarily curved as in the figure. Striate, marked with striae or slight furrows. Sulcate, deeply furrowed with longitudinal channels. As applied to leaves, both striate and sulcate really refer to the fold whose concave surface is on the inner or ventral surface of the leaf. Tubulose, see canaliculate. Uncinate, hooked, curved back at point. (Fig. 16.) Undulate, with an alternately concave and convex margin, wavy; e. g. leaves of Dicranum nndulatum. Ventral surface, the surface of a leaf next the stem. Vermicular, narrow and curved like a little worm; applied to leaf 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 p
