spicate |
|
architecture |
inflorescence |
Comprising one or more spikes. |
haplocheilic |

|
architecture |
thallus |
Having leaf-like lobes; in Hepaticae. |
spiciform |
= spike-like |
architecture |
capitulescence, inflorescence |
Resembling a spike, but not strictly such. |
haplomorphic |

flower |
Having the members of each set of basic floral structures numerous and spirally arranged, the flower hemispheric to conoidal overall. |
…styled |
= …stylous |
architecture |
flower, pistil |
Having the number of styles indicated by the prefix; as in five-styled. |
net-like |
= anastomosing, netted, reticulate |
architecture |
tertiary and higher-order laminar veins, excl veinlets |
Interconnecting more or less regularly. |

< stalked |
architecture |
structure |
Having a stipe. |
two-lipped |
= bilabiate; < labiate, lipped |
architecture |
perianth, calyx, corolla |
Strongly zygomorphic with connate and/or coherent members whose distal portions form two unequal, opposing, lip-like structures, one adaxial, one abaxial. See also gaping (personate, ringent). |
anther-bearing |
= antheriferous |
architecture |
floral structure |
Bearing anthers. |
compound-lipped |
= syndetocheilic |
architecture |
stomate |
Having subsidiary cells derived from the primary stoma mother cell and thus immediately related ontogenetically to the guard cells. |
cymiform |
= cyme-like |
architecture |
capitulescence, inflorescence |
Resembling a cyme, but not strictly such. |
sheathing 1 |
|
architecture |
foliaceous structure |
Differentiated into distinct proximal and distal portions, the former terete or involute and closely enclosing the bearing axis above the point of insertion. |
microphyllous |
|
architecture |
plant |
Bearing microphylls. |
sepal-like |
= sepaloid |
architecture |
structure |
Resembling a sepal in shape, texture and color. |
agglomerate |
= glomerate |
architecture |
inflorescence |
Comprising one or more glomes. |
asepalous |
|
architecture |
flower, perianth |
Lacking sepals. |
pedatifid |
= pedate |
architecture |
foliaceous structure |
Palmately divided with the two proximal lateral lobes each 2-parted. |
eradicate |
= rootless |
architecture |
plant |
Lacking a root. |
eramous |
= unbranched |
architecture |
axis, laminar vein |
Not branching at any point. |
unstalked |
= exstipitate, sessile, stalkless |
architecture |
structure |
Lacking a stalk, thus inserted ("sitting") directly upon the bearing structure. |
netted 1 |
= anastomosing, net-like, reticulate |
architecture |
tertiary and higher-order laminar veins, excl veinlets |
Interconnecting more or less regularly. |
…cephalous |
= …headed |
architecture |
capitulescence, inflorescence |
Having the number of heads (capitula) indicated by the prefix; as in monocephalous, tricephalous, polycephalous. |
papilionaceous |
= butterfly-like |
architecture |
corolla |
Having a relatively large, erect adaxial (upper) petal (the standard, banner or vexillum), two smaller lateral petals (the wings or alae), and two individually smaller but connate or coherent abaxial (lower) petals that together form a carinate structure (the keel or carina), the whole loosely resembling a butterfly with wings spread. |
