supramedial |
|
insertion |
|
Just above the middle of the structure in point. |
|
laminar 1 |
|
insertion |
|
Upon or otherwise directly associated with the lamina (blade) of a foliaceous structure. |
|
peripheral |
|
insertion |
|
Upon or otherwise directly associated with the outer surfaces or regions of a three-dimensional structure. Although use of this term in two-dimensional contexts is technically correct, traditionally the term marginal is preferred in such cases. |
|
staminal |
|
insertion |
|
Upon or otherwise directly associated with the stamens. |
|
ventral (not recommended) |
= adaxial |
insertion |
|
On or pertaining to the side or portion of a lateral structure that faces (or would face) toward the bearing axis when (or if) the axis of the lateral structure is (or were) oriented in the same general direction as the bearing axis. |
|
marginal |
|
insertion |
|
Upon or otherwise directly associated with the margins. |
|
proximal |
> basal |
insertion |
|
Upon or associated with the portion of a structure closest to its developmental origin. |
|
basicaulous |
|
insertion |
|
At or very near the stem base. |
|
epirhizal |
|
insertion |
|
Upon or arising from the roots. |
|
cauline |
|
insertion |
|
Upon, arising from, or otherwise directly associated with the stem. |
|
surficial |
= superficial |
insertion |
|
Directly upon the surface of the structure in point. |
|
intravaginal |
|
insertion |
|
Within the leaf sheath. |
|
ramal |
|
insertion |
|
Upon or otherwise directly associated with the stem branches. |
|
inferior 1 |
|
insertion |
indusium |
Inserted at the base of the sorus. |
|
episepalous |
|
insertion |
|
Upon the sepals, or partially adnate thereto and apparently arising therefrom. |
|
staminodial |
|
insertion |
|
Upon or otherwise directly associated with the staminodes. |
|
pseudoaxillary |
|
insertion |
|
Only apparently axillary; originally extraaxillary but displaced to the axil by differential growth during development. |
|
septal |
|
insertion |
|
Upon or otherwise directly associated with the septum or septa. |
|
subapical |
= subterminal |
insertion |
|
Lateral and just below the apex. |
|
hypogynous |
|
insertion |
perianth, calyx, corolla, androecium |
Entirely free from the gynoecium or any floral cup, arising from a level proximal or lateral to the base of the gynoecium. See also epigynous, perigynous. |
|
extrafloral |
|
insertion |
|
Outside and proximal to the flower; esp. nectaries. |
|
foliar |
|
insertion |
|
Upon or otherwise directly associated with the leaves. |
|
axillary |
|
insertion |
|
Within the axil; nodal and at or very close to the vertex of the distal angle between a lateral structure, especially a leaf, and the axis that bears it. |
|
extravaginal |
|
insertion |
|
Distal to or outside the leaf sheath. |
|
nodal |
> interpetiolar |
insertion |
|
Upon or associated with the nodes. |
