| Pedicel | The stalk of the flower. Flowers without pedicels are called sessile. |  |
| Pedicel scar | The scar left by the stalk to which the fruit is attached. |  |
| Pedicel/hypanthium | The pedicel is articulate in all species of Lecythidaceae. In some species the hypanthium tapers to the articulation and resembles a pedicel and, in other species, the hypanthium is truncate and does not resemble a pedicel. Thus, everything from the calyx to the articulation and from the articulation to the rachis is called the pedicel/hypanthium. |  |
| Pedicel/hypanthium tapered to articulation | The pedicel/hypanthium is tapered gradually to the ariculation such that a true pedicel appears to be present |  |
| Pedicel/hypanthium truncate at articulation | There is no clear cut pedicel in this type of pedicel/hypanthium |  |
