FIGURE 4 in Taxonomy of the tribe Apieae (Apiaceae) revisited as revealed by molecular phylogenies and morphological characters

FIGURE 4. Transverse section of the mericarps of species representing of all the genera of tribe Apieae except Billburttia. All the photographs show mericarps in cross section except for Naufraga (J) which is a complete schizocarp. Scale bar = 1 mm. Lower cases indicate in the different slides the main carpological features commented in this work: c, commissure; mr, marginal ribs; pr, primary dorsal ribs; sr, secondary ribs; v, vallecula; cv, commissural vitta; vv, vallecular vitta; vb, vascular bundles. Dash lines in figures C and O depicts the break of fruit layers due to manipulation. For voucher information see Table 1. Species are provided in alphabetical order. A. Ammi majus. B. Anethum foeniculoides. C. Anethum graveolens, arrow depicts the vascular bundles within a broken winged marginal rib. D. Apium anuum. E. Apium graveolens. F. Deverra aphylla. G. Deverra denudata. H. Deverra intermedia. I. Foeniculum vulgare (A. Aparicio & J. G. Rowe s.n., MA). J. Naufraga balearica, arrow depicts commissural vascular bundles. K. Petroselinum crispum, arrow depicts an accessorial vitta (E. San Miguel ESM278, MA). L. Pseudoridolfia fennanei (paratype J. Mathez 6979ter, MPU). M. Ridolfia
