Another distinguishing feature in the infructescence is the pedicels, which elongate, spread apart, stiffen and ultimately radiate equally in all directions.
22.
Now known as an infructescence, it is roughly ellipsoidal, 6 to 10 cm high ( 2.2 4 in ) and wide.
23.
"' Infructescence "'( fruiting head ) is defined as the ensemble of fruits derived from the ovaries of an inflorescence.
24.
Milne-Redhead and Schweickerdt had segregated " Cybistetes " from " Ammocharis " largely on the basis of infructescence structure.
25.
A fossil infructescence and fruit found in 44 million-year-old strata in Oregon was assigned to " Emmenopterys dilcheri ", an extinct species.
26.
B . H . Danser described the species in his 1928 monograph, " The Nepenthaceae of the Netherlands Indies ", based only on part of a stem and an infructescence.
27.
He described " I . globosus " from the Port Jackson district on the basis of round ( rather than oval ) infructescences ( cones ), and " I . virgatulus " from Western Australia.
28.
Fruits are green, egg-shaped, usually less than 1 mm across, enclosed inside the persistent flower parts which are in turn enclosed in woolly hairs, so that the infructescence as a whole appears white and woolly.
29.
At a site near Jandakot, short-billed black cockatoos were observed selecting immature infructescences which bore signs of infestation by the weevil " Alphitopis nivea ", the larvae of which tunnel in banksia spikes and eat the seed.
30.
Morphological support for this was given by the fact that the old styles of var . " dolichostyla " are quite different from those of other varieties, being stouter, and tending not to curl around the infructescence as the others do.
