In one instance the pseudo leaf divided, and from the division proceeded a little axis, bearing at its summit a verticil of pseudo leaves.
All intermediate stages of this malformation may be found from cases where there is a simple fusion of two flowers with a second verticil of carpels within the outer, up to such cases as those which have been just mentioned.
In the normal stem of Galium Mollugo the branches are opposite in each verticil and crossed in the two successive ones.
A diminished number of leaves in a whorl occasionally takes place; thus, in some of the Stellatæ, and frequently in Paris quadrifolia, the number of leaves in the verticil is reduced.
The carpels of the latter are wholly coalescent as in a pear, while those of the upper verticil are only partially coherent or sometimes quite distinct.
By the suppression of the verticil of the stamens, or of the carpels, flowers become unisexual or diclinous, and by the suppression of one or both of the floral envelopes, monochlamydeous and achlamydeous flowers are produced.
Diagram to illustrate induplicative or induplicate aestivation, in which the parts of the verticil are slightly turned inwards at the edges.
Radial tubes thorny, with lateral branches or spines, usually with a terminal verticil at the distal end.
The eight fingers of the terminal coronets are less divergent and curved than in the preceding species, and each finger bears at its end a verticil of four to six divergent, slender teeth, which are not recurved (fig.
Radial tubes smooth, without lateral branches or spines, but armed with a verticil of teeth at the distal end.
The three branches of each verticillie in the same equidistant meridian planes as the three basal feet, and are inserted with their distal ends on the inner surface of the simple lattice-shell.
Columella with a singleverticil of three ascending branches.
An inner thin prolongation of the horn descends vertically nearly to the mouth, and bears on its basal end three verticils of branched spines, each verticil with three divergent forked spines (fig.
The ten branches of the inner and outer verticils are perradial, smooth; the alternating five branches of the middle verticil are armed with recurved lateral denticles.
The forked branches of the firstverticil end free between the two shells (figs.
From each spine arise ten to twelve verticils of lateral branches; each verticil composed of three forked branches.
Eight primary spines arise from the eight corners of the central cube, twenty-four secondary from the edges of these (a verticil of every three from each primary spine).
At the middle, or in the distal half, each spine bears a verticil of three strong, irregularly formed ramified branches.
Four main spines nearly as long as the shell diameter, three-sided prismatic, with four to six verticils of ramified lateral branches, each verticil composed of three forked branches, which ramify again.
Each spine between the two shells has a verticil of three forked lateral branches (fig.
A single radial tube, with a centripetal free prolongation at the base and a verticil of undulate terminal branches at the distal end.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "verticil" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
