Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
R. J. Carpenter and G. J. Jordan 1997 (Proteaciphyllum linearis)Leaf very narrow elliptic, sparsely toothed. Cuticle very thick, stomates large (about 45 μm long), quite elongate with prominent T-pieces at the poles of the guard cells, many aligned parallel to long axis of leaf. Cuticle over subsidiary cell regions often thickly rugulate. Inner abaxial cuticular surface markedly granular. Epidermis composed of small,
roughly isodiametric cells, with sinuous, unevenly thickened or buttressed, anticlinal walls. Trichome bases on adaxial surface associated with two to six epidermal cells, and on abaxial surface probably one or two.
