single-leafleted |
= one-leafleted, unifoliolate |
architecture |
foliaceous structure |
Structurally compound but with only one leaflet, whose nature (as a leaflet, not a leaf) is revealed by an evident articulation with the petiole, this condition presumably derived by evolutionary reduction from a multifoliolate precursor. |

Compound with one order of leaflets all inserted at a common point and diverging from one another; or lobed (cleft, divided, parted, segmented), incised or ribbed in a similar hand-like pattern. Unless qualified to indicate otherwise, this term usually is understood to mean "palmately once-compound." See also …palmate, palmatifid, palmatipinnate, ternate. |

|
unifoliolate |
= one-leafleted, single-leafleted |

pinnate |
> pinnatifid, pinnatisect |
architecture |
foliaceous structure |
Compound with one order of leaflets inserted at different points along and to either side of the axis, from which those on each side diverge more or less in parallel; or lobed (cleft, divided, parted, segmented), incised or ribbed in a similar, feather-like pattern. Unless qualified to indicate otherwise, this term usually is understood to mean "pinnately once-compound." See also imparipinnate, palmatipinnate, paripinnate, …pinnate, pinnatifid. |
