Abstract

DURING the course of an investigation on the disposition of xylem in the rachises of cycads, I came across a peculiar abnormality in Cycas revoluta Thunb. In some female specimens, several leaves possessed a subsidiary rachis which bore subsidiary pinnae in a spiral fashion. This was noted in several successive whorls.
