…leafleted |
= …foliolate |
architecture |
foliaceous structure |

foliaceous structure |
Compound with the number of orders of leaflets indicated by the prefix, each order ternate; as in biternate, thrice-ternate. |
palmate |

architecture |
foliaceous structure |
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. |
trigeminous |
= tergeminate, trijugate |
architecture |
foliaceous structure |
Compound with three orders of leaflets, each order bifoliolate. |

architecture |
foliaceous structure |

nut |
|
nominative |
fruit |
Relatively large, indehiscent, one-loculed, one-seeded and with a thick, hard, sometimes osseous pericarp; derived from a single, simple or compound ovary. See also acorn (glans). |
schizocarp |
> loment |
nominative |
fruit |
Dry, dehiscent and with two or more locules; derived from a single, superior or inferior, compound ovary; with or without accessory tissue; splitting between locules to yield separate, individually indehiscent, usually one-seeded segments (cocci or mericarps). |

architecture |
fruit |
Having the structure and texture of a capsule. |
grain (not recommended) |
= caryopsis; < achene |
nominative |
fruit |
The achene of a grass [Poaceae (Gramineae)] Although in traditional use grain (or caryopsis) has been treated as a type separate from achene, they do not differ in basic morphology. |
