Habit (i)general appearance of a plant | |
Smell & Touch: (i)General appearance of the plant. | odor (i)Plant with an obvious scent
|
Parasite status: (i)Is the plant a half- or full parasite? | no parasite/saprophyte (i)Plant fully autonomous, leaves with chlorophyll example: Most plants, Ranunculus inherited by family Lamiaceae: no parasite/saprophyte
|
Water or terrestrial plant: (i)Where do the plants grow? | terrestrial (i)Plant grows on dry land example: Orostachys spinosa inherited by family Lamiaceae: terrestrial
|
Leaf (i)expanded, usually photosynthetic organ of a plant (including phylloclades) | |
Leaf development: (i)Structure and development of leaves. | flattened blade (i)Cross-section of lamina flat, plain inherited by family Lamiaceae: flattened blade common leaf (i)Green, often divided in blade and petiole example: Cotoneaster inherited by family Lamiaceae: common leaf with green leaves (i)Plant with green leaves inherited by family Lamiaceae: with green leaves
|
Leaf arrangement: (i)Arrangement of leaves at the stem. | opposite, opposite-decussate (i)Two leaves per node example: Lamiaceae, e.g. Phlomis inherited by family Lamiaceae: opposite, opposite-decussate
|
Simple or divided leaves: (i)Are the leaves simple or completely divided in several parts? Blade of the leaf entire or (more or less) deeply dissected. Attention: There are various appearances of the leaf margin (from entire to toothed and lobed). Here, we ignore this and ask only for dissections that separate the leaf for more than one third of its length or width, whatever is smaller. Sometimes, it is difficult to tell apart compound leaves from a shoot system with simple leaves: look for stipulae and/or axillary buds at the ground of the leaves: if only some possess these structures, the others are most likely leaflets of a compound leaf. | compound (i)Composed of several similar parts inherited by genus Leonurus: compound palmate (transition to palmatisected!) (i)Divided from a point, like the fingers of a hand example: Cannabis, Hibiscus (3-5 parts) inherited by genus Leonurus: palmate (transition to palmatisected!)
|
Leaf apex: (i)Appearance of the tip of leaf resp. leaflets in compound leaves. | acuminate (i)Gradually tapering to a (sharp) point example: Populus laurifolia?
|
Leaf margin: (i)Structure of leaf margin (or that of a leaflet in case of compound leaves). Attention: Here we ask for the leaf margin, defined as all those dissections that separate the leaf for less than one third of its length or width, whatever is smaller. To be worked out: how to handle margin of pinnate leaves? | lobed (i)Curved division, be aware of deeply lobed leaves than compare with palmatisected (character: leaf division) example: Crataegus, Dryas, Rubus humulifolius
|
Petiole: (i)Leaf divided into stalk (petiole) and blade. | with (i)Leaves with petiole (stalk)

Sepal number: (i)Number of sepal leaves (outer perianth leaves, calyx leaves, mostly greenish). Attention, this character applies only for flowers separated in sepals and petals, thus excluding most monocots.
