the cerebral peduncles
With the exception of the peduncle immediately adjacent to the caudal fin, migrating worms were not found on the skin for more than 2 consecutive daily observations.
Pods in both species do not fall to the ground at maturity, and remain attached for several months to the tree crown by their elongated peduncles.
The clamps, each borne on a long peduncle, are all about the same size and measure 160 (140-200) /an in width and 100 (90-130) /an in length.
The corresponding optimum efficiency may be further enhanced by moderately increasing the heaving amplitude of the major pitch axis (peduncle) as long as the assumption of small perturbations remains adequate.
Each peduncle normally bears 1+4 -owers, though in some conditions up to 7 -owers per in-orescence have been found.
The remaining bulk sample was separated into fruit and vegetative components, including peduncles, and air-dried.
Most pre-first birth worms born on the caudal fin, remained on this fin, but did occasionally move on to the peduncle.
In the chiropterophilous species the capitula are much larger and typically borne on long, pendent peduncles arranged in little-branched inflorescences.
