The involucral spikelets are male or neuter, the largest, and consist of three glumes. ❋ K. Rangachari (N/A)
Pedicelled spikelets inside the involucral similar to those of the involucral. ❋ K. Rangachari (N/A)
The _involucral spikelets_ are the longest, in contiguous superposed pairs, about 1/2 inch long, and the rachis of the spike is produced beyond these spikelets. ❋ K. Rangachari (N/A)
The pedicelled spikelets are similar to the involucral in every respect but smaller, male or neuter, but the first glume is not winged on the keels. ❋ K. Rangachari (N/A)
The inner pedicelled spikelets are similar to the involucral spikelets, but the third glume is very narrow, linear. ❋ K. Rangachari (N/A)
The _pedicelled spikelets_ are usually smaller than the involucral spikelets and similar to them. ❋ K. Rangachari (N/A)
The involucral spikelets are male, oblong-lanceolate, acute, with short flattened pedicels, bearded at the base, and have three glumes. ❋ K. Rangachari (N/A)
It also occurs in the bracts of _Corydalis solida_, _Amorpha fruticosa_, _Ajuga reptans_, _Parthenium inodorum_, _Centaurea Jacea_, in the involucral bracts of the dandelion, the daisy, and many other composites. ❋ Maxwell T. Masters (N/A)
In _Umbelliferæ_ the substitution of leaves for involucral bracts is not infrequent. ❋ Maxwell T. Masters (N/A)
Apostasis of the sub-floral or involucral leaves is not of infrequent occurrence in malformations affecting _Compositæ_ and _Umbelliferæ_. ❋ Maxwell T. Masters (N/A)
A similar lengthening occurs in the involucral leaves of _Umbelliferæ_ and ❋ Maxwell T. Masters (N/A)
In some of the cultivated double varieties of _Nigella_ the finely divided involucral bracts are repeated over and over again, but on a diminished scale, to the exclusion of all the other parts of the flower. ❋ Maxwell T. Masters (N/A)
This presumably refers to the nuts in their large involucral mass, -- say four or five bushels of husked nuts. ❋ Unknown (N/A)
In one of these (Fig. 138), the ligneous bracts or scales, narrow and long, and gradually tapering till they assume nearly the awl-shaped form, cluster out thick from the base and middle portions of the cone, and, like the involucral appendages of the hazel-nut, or the sepals of the yet unfolded rose-bud, sweep gracefully upwards to the top, where they present at their margins minute denticulations. ❋ Hugh Miller (1829)
The involucral bracts -- the green bracts at the base of the flower head -- are also covered in gum, adding to the sticky reputation of the plant. ❋ Unknown (2009)
A cluster of spikelets with spathes; 2. the involucral and the inner spikelets; 3. the inner spikelets; 4 and 5. the glumes of the involucral spikelets; 6, 7, 8 and 9. the four glumes, respectively, of the sessile spikelet; 10. ovary; 11 and 12. glumes of the inner pedicelled spikelets.] ❋ K. Rangachari (N/A)
A new species of ANTHISTIRIA occurred here, perfectly distinct from the kangaroo grass of the colony, very like APLUDA MUTICA, and remarkable for the smooth shining appearance of the thin involucral leaves. [ ❋ Thomas Mitchell (1823)
