14. Grains of pollen separated by force; magnified 200 times. This
shews that the pollen coheres in fours or threes.
15. 16. 17- Different views of the anther before expansion, shewing the
narrow neck or connectivum by which the lobes are united, and
the true figure of the latter; magnified 16 times.
18. A transverse section of the ovarium; magnified 16 times. From
this it appears, that of the nine wings of that body three only
belong to the placentiferous valves; of the remaining six two
belong to each of the sterile valves.
19. A capsule bursting; shewing the manner in which all the segments
of the perianthium cohere, so as to prevent the valves from opening
entirely; magnified 4 times.
20. A transverse section of the same.
21. 22. 23. 24. Different views of seeds; magnified 25 times.
