Extract

The influence of Size as a factor in the stelar morphology of the Filicales (2) and of some Primitive Plants (3) has already been discussed in the Proceedings of this Society. The aim of the present investigation is to determine by actual measurement to what extent Size may have acted as a causal factor in determining the structure and arrangement of the vascular system of Selaginella.
