Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| G. J. Jordan et al. 2010 | Leaves simple, entire, or fi nely serrate, shortly petiolate or sessile, bifacial; scleromorphic; stomata restricted to the abaxial surface or nearly so. Leaves with many major veins arising separately from the base of the lamina and extending down the lamina, outermost veins branching occasionally, inner veins rarely branching. Anticlinal cell walls of adaxial epidermal cells highly sinuous. Abaxial leaf surface with short, conical trichomes covering the stomatal region and obscuring the stomata. Stomatal axes approximately parallel to long axis of leaf. Subsidiary cells obscured by guard cells. Guard cells forming an elliptical torus in surface view. |
