The calyx is regular (c. regularis, wqualis), when its sepals, whether equal or unequal, form a symmetrical whorl {Wallfiower, fig. 8; Pimpernel, fig. 203 ; Erythrcea, fig. 204; Lychnis, fig. 205) ;—it is irregular (c. irregularis, inwqualis), when the whorl is unsymmetrical {Lamium, fig. 208). In the Aconite the upper sepal forms a hood ; in Larkspur (fig. 209) it is prolonged into a hollow horn or spur. In the Tropoeolmm (fig. 210), the spur by the united and lengthened three upper sepals. In Pelargonium the upper sepal is produced downwards, and forms a tube adherent to the pedicel. In Scutella/ria the five sepals form two lips; of which the upper.
