| Notes: | Note source: Entada scandens, Three seeds obtained from plant on Dec. 13.1907. At first they were weighed together and they kept practically a constant weight, but in Feb. they began to increase in weight slightly and this went on to April 1909 when the, total weight had increased from 1087.4 gramms to 1088.8 grains. The seeds were then examined carefully when all showed some slight surface defects either partial injury to the cuticle or unusual development of subcutaneous amealid ? cracks. It was then, decided to weigh them separately with the following results in grains. See note attached. 1909 April 27 A, 344.7. B, 362.1. C, 382.0 1924 July 21 A, 324.0. B, 361.0. C, 381.7 | ||||
