In the second form there is but one, or a comparatively few original veins, and these give rise to successively developed branch systems, the whole forming a network or Reticulum. Such leaves are called reticulated or Netted-veined (Fig. 524, etc.). These veins may or may not anastomose or intercommunicate at their distal ends. When they.
