stem, decurrent part sometimes apparently extending beyond the attachment of the adjacent
leaflet. Trichome bases circular or nearly so, about 25–35 μm diameter, overlying 2–10 basal
epidermal cells forming a complex up to 90 μm in diameter. Stomata brachyparacytic, 1 or
2 subsidiary cells with a transverse septum.
