|
Androecial appendages
|
In the Lecythidaceae, any prolongation from the surface of the androecium; if there are fertile anthers on the appendage they are called a stamens, if there are normal appearing anthers that produce only fodder pollen they are called staminodes, if there are only rudimentary anthers or no anthers at all the appendages they are called vestigial stamens, and if they produce nectar they are called nectar-producing vestigial stamens. |
|
|
Androecial hood
|
In the Lecythidaceae, the distal part of the ligule that has become modified either structurally by coiling inward or by the production of staminodes, vestigial stamens, or nectar-producing vestigial stamens. Androecial hoods are usuallly separated from the staminal ring by an appendage-free part of the ligule (the only known exception is Couroupita nicaraguarensis and perhaps a species of the Lecythis sec. Pisonis group not yet identified. Androecial hoods of Lecythidaceae vary according to their degree of structural complexity and the type of androecial appendages they possess. |
|
|
Androecial hood
|
In zygomorphic-flowered Lecythidaceae with ligules, the distal part of the ligule that has become modified either by the outgrowth of appendices (= staminodes, vestigial stamens, or nectar-producing vestigial stamens), by an abrupt change in direction of the ligule, or by both. Androecial hoods are usuallly separated from the staminal ring by an appendage-free part of the ligule (the only known exception is Couroupita nicaraguarensis and perhaps a few species of the Lecythis sec. Pisonis group. Androecial hoods of Lecythidaceae vary according to their degree of structural complexity and the type of androecial appendages they possess. |
|
|
Androecial hood appendages swept inward
|
A androecial hood type in which appendages arise from an expanded apical or subapical part of the ligule from where they curve into the flower but do not form a coil (e.g., as in species of Eschweilera). The appendices are always more or less fused together at their bases. If the expanded part of the hood is subapical and the ligule extends beyond the thickening, the extension is called the anterior ligular extension. Do not confuse this term with curved appendages (see definition) |
|
|
Androecial hood double-coiled
|
The androecial hood is coiled twice inward. |
|
|
Androecial hood flat
|
The androecial hood is not curved or coiled inward at all |
|
|
Androecial hood flat, thick
|
The androecial hood, as seen in medial longitudinal section, is thickened dorsiventrally. |
|
|
Androecial hood flat, thin
|
The androecial hood is not curved or coiled inward and it is not thickened as viewed in a medial longitudinal section. |
|
|
Androecial hood horizontally oriented (= hood horizontally oriented)
|
An androecial hood with the first coil oriented at more-or-less 90 degrees to the main axis of the flower. |
