A systematic arrangement follows, based on the +evolution of the cone and seed from the comparatively primitive +conditions that appear in Pinus cembra to the specialized cone and +peculiar dissemination of Pinus radiata and its associates. This +arrangement involves no radical change in existing systems. The new +associations in which some of the species appear are the natural result +of another point of view. + +Experience with Mexican species has led me to believe that a Pine can +adapt itself to various climatic conditions and can modify its growth in +response to them. Variations in dimensions of leaf or cone, the number +of leaves in the fascicle, the presence of pruinose branchlets, etc., +which have been thought to imply specific distinctions, are often the +evidence of facile adaptability. In fact such variations, in correlation +with climatic variation, may argue, not for specific distinction, but +for specific identity. The remarkable variation in the species may be +attributed partly to this adaptability, partly to a participation, more +or less pronounced, in the evolutionary processes that culminate in the +serotinous Pines. + + + + +PART I + +CHARACTERS OF THE GENUS + + +THE COTYLEDON. Plate I, figs. 1-3. + +The upper half of the embryo in Pinus is a cylindrical fascicle of 4 to +15 cotyledons (fig. 1). The cross-section of a cotyledon is, therefore, +a triangle whose angles vary with the number composing the fascicle. +Sections from fascicles of 10 and of 5 cotyledons are shown in figs. 2 +and 3. Apart from this difference cotyledons are much alike. Their +number varies and is indeterminate for all species, while any given +number is common to so many species that the character is of no value. + + +THE PRIMARY LEAF. Plate I, figs. 4-6. + +Primary leaves follow the cotyledons immediately (fig. 4) and assume the +usual functions of foliage for a limited period, varying from one to +three years, secondary fascicles appearing here and there in their +axils. With the permanent appearance of the secondary leaves the green +primaries disappear and their place is taken by bud-scales, which in the +spring and summer persist as scarious bracts, each subtending a fascicle +of secondary leaves. At this stage the bracts present two important +distinctions. + + 1. The bract-base is non-decurrent, like the leaf-base + of Abies fig. 5. + 2. The bract-base is decurrent, like the leaf-base of Picea fig. 6. + +The two sections of the genus, Haploxylon and Diploxylon, established by +Koehne on the single and double fibro-vascular bundle of the leaf, are +even more accurately characterized by these two forms of +bract-insertion. The difference between them, however, is most obvious +on long branchlets with wide intervals between the leaf-fascicles. + +The bracts of spring-shoots are the scarious bud-scales of the previous +winter; but the bracts of summer-shoots have the form and green color of +the primary leaf. + + +THE BUD. Plate I, figs. 7-11. + +The winter-bud is an aggregate of minute buds, each concealed in the +axil of a primary leaf converted into a scarious, more or less +fimbriate, bud-scale. Buds from which normal growth develops appear only +at the nodes of the branches. On uninodal branchlets they form an apical +group consisting of a terminal bud with a whorl of subterminal buds +about its base. On multinodal branchlets the inner nodes bear lateral +buds which may be latent. + +Fig. 7 represents a magnified bud of P. resinosa, first immersed in +alcohol to dissolve the resin, then deprived of its scales. This bud +contains both fascicle-buds, destined for secondary leaves, and larger +paler buds at its base. These last are incipient staminate flowers, +sufficiently developed for recognition. Such flower-bearing buds are +characteristic of the Hard Pines in distinction from the Soft Pines +whose staminate flowers cannot be identified in the bud. + +The want of complete data leaves the invariability of this distinction +in question, but with all species that I have examined, the flowers of +Hard Pines are further advanced at the end of the summer. In the +following year they open earlier than those of Soft Pines in the same +locality. The staminate flowers of some Hard Pines (resinosa, +sylvestris, etc.,) are not apparent without removing the bud-scales, +but, with most Hard Pines, they form enlargements of the bud (fig. 9). + +Invisible or latent buds are present at the nodes and at the apex of +dwarf shoots. The former are the origin of the numerous shoots that +cover the trunk and branches of P. rigida, leiophylla and a few other +species (fig. 10). The latter develop into shoots in the centre of a +leaf-fascicle (fig. 11) when the branchlet, bearing the fascicle, has +been injured. + +The size, color and form of buds, the presence of resin in quantity, +etc., assist in the diagnosis of species. Occasionally a peculiar bud, +like that of P. palustris, may be recognized at once. + + +THE BRANCHLET. Plate I, figs. 12-14. + +The branchlet, as here understood, is the whole of a season's growth +from a single bud, and may consist of a single internode (uninodal, fig. +12-a) or of two or more internodes (multinodal, fig. 13), each internode +being defined by a leafless base and a terminal node of buds. + +The spring-shoot is uninodal in all Soft Pines and in many Hard Pines, +but, in P. taeda and its allies and in species with serotinous cones, it +is more or less prevalently multinodal. + +The uninodal spring-shoot may remain so throughout the growing season +and become a uninodal branchlet. Or a summer-shoot may appear on +vigorous branches of any species with the result of converting a +uninodal spring-shoot into an imperfect multinodal branchlet. The +summer-shoot may be recognized, during growth, by its green, not +scarious bracts and, at the end of the season, by the imperfect growth +of its wood and foliage (fig. 14). + +The perfect multinodal branchlet is formed in the winter-bud (fig. 8-a) +and the spring-shoot is multinodal. It is gradually evolved among the +Hard Pines, where it may be absent, rare, frequent or prevalent, +according to the species. In fact there is, in Pinus, an evolutionary +tendency toward multinodal growth, with its beginnings in the +summer-shoot and its culmination in the multinodal winter-bud, most +prevalent among the serotinous Pines. + +The multinodal shoot is never invariable in a species, but is rare, +common or prevalent. This condition prevents its employment for grouping +species. For Pines are not sharply divided into multinodal and uninodal +species, and no exact segregation of them, based on this difference, is +possible. In fact the character is unequally developed among closely +related species, such as P. palustris and caribaea. Both produce +multinodal shoots, but the former so rarely that it should be classed as +a uninodal species, while the latter is characteristically multinodal. +The multinodal spring-shoot, however, has a certain correlative value in +its relation to other evolutionary processes that are obvious in the +genus. + +The length of the branchlet is much influenced by different soils and +climates. In species able to adapt themselves to great changes, the +length of the internode may vary from 50 cm. or more to 1 cm. or less. +In the latter case the branch is a series of very short leafless joints +terminated by a crowded penicillate tuft of leaves (fig. 12-b). Such a +growth may be seen on any species (ponderosa, albicaulis, resinosa, +etc.) that can survive exposure and poor nourishment. + +The presence of wax, as a bloom on the branchlet, is associated with +trees in arid localities, especially Mexico, where it is very common. +With several species the character is inconstant, apparently dependent +on environment, and is a provision against too rapid transpiration. + +The branchlet furnishes evidence of the section to which the species +belongs, for the bract-bases persist after the bracts have fallen away. +The color of the branchlet, its lustre, the presence of minute hairs, +etc., are often suggestions for determining species. + +[Illustration: PLATE I. PRIMARY LEAF, BUD AND BRANCHLET] + + +THE SECONDARY LEAF. Plate II. + +Secondary leaves, the permanent foliage of Pines, are borne on +dwarf-shoots in the axils of primary leaves. They form cylindrical +fascicles, rarely monophyllous, prevalently of 2, 3 or 5 leaves, +occasionally of 4, 6, 7, or 8 leaves. The scales of the fascicle-bud +elongate into a basal sheath, deciduous (fig. 15) in all Soft Pines +except P. Nelsonii, persistent (fig. 16) in all Hard Pines except P. +leiophylla and Lumholtzii. Inasmuch as these three species are easily +recognized, the fascicle-sheath is useful for sectional distinctions. + + +EXTERNAL CHARACTERS. + +The number of leaves in the fascicle is virtually constant in most +species, the variations being too rare to be worthy of consideration. +With some species, however, heteromerous fascicles are normal. The +influences that cause this variation are not always apparent (echinata, +etc.), but with P. ponderosa, leiophylla, sinensis and others, the +number of leaves in the fascicle is, in some degree, dependent on +climatic conditions, the smaller number occurring in colder regions. In +Mexico, for example, where snow-capped mountains lie on subtropical +table-lands and extremes of temperature are in juxtaposition, the +conditions are favorable for the production of species with heteromerous +fascicles, and the number of leaves in the fascicle possesses often +climatic rather than specific significance. + +Among conifers, the leaf of Pinus attains extraordinary length with +great variation, from 5 cm. or less to 50 cm. or more, the maximum for +each species being usually much more than twice the minimum. Climate is +the predominating influence; for the shortest leaves occur on alpine and +boreal species, the longest leaves on species in or near the tropics. + +The length of the leaf is complicated by the peculiarities of individual +trees and by pathological influences; as a general rule, however, the +length of leaves is less or greater according to unfavorable or +favorable conditions of temperature, moisture, soil and exposure. +Therefore the dimensions of the leaf may be misleading. It can be said, +however, that certain species always produce short leaves, others leaves +of medium length, and others very long leaves. + +Persistence of the leaf varies with the species and with the individual +tree. But it is noteworthy that the longest persistence is associated +with short leaves (Balfouriana, albicaulis, montana, etc.). + + +INTERNAL CHARACTERS. + +Since the leaf-fascicle is cylindrical, the cross-section of a leaf is a +sector, its proportional part, of a circle. Theoretically the leaf, in +section, should indicate the number of leaves composing its fascicle. +This is absolutely true for fascicles of two leaves only. No fascicle of +five leaves, that I have examined, is equally apportioned among its five +members. It may be divided in various ways, one of which is shown in +fig. 18, where the leaf (a) might be mistaken for one of a fascicle of +3, and the leaf (b) for one of a fascicle of 6. Therefore if absolute +certainty is required, a fascicle of triquetral leaves is best +determined by actual count. + +The transverse section of a leaf may be conveniently divided into three +distinct parts--1, the dermal tissues, epiderm, hypoderm and stomata +(fig. 17-a)--2, the green tissue, containing the resin-ducts (fig. +17-b)--3, the stelar tissues, enclosed by the endoderm and containing +the fibro-vascular bundle (fig. 17-c). + + +THE DERMAL TISSUES OF THE LEAF. + +The stomata of Pine leaves are depressed below the surface and interrupt +the continuity of epiderm and hypoderm. They are wanting on the dorsal +surface of the leaves of several Soft Pines, constantly in some species, +irregularly in others. In Hard Pines, however, all surfaces of the leaf +are stomatiferous. In several species of the Soft Pines the longitudinal +lines of stomata are very conspicuous from the white bloom which +modifies materially the general color of the foliage. + +Under the action of hydrochloric acid the hypoderm is sharply +differentiated from the epiderm by a distinct reddish tint, but without +the aid of a reagent the two tissues do not always differ in appearance. +The cells of epiderm and hypoderm may be so similar that they appear to +form a single tissue. In most species, however, the epiderm is distinct, +while the cells of the hypoderm are either uniform, with equally thin +or thick walls--or biform, with very thin walls in the outer row of +cells and very thick walls in the inner row or rows of cells--or +multiform, with cell-walls gradually thicker toward the centre of the +leaf. These conditions may be tabulated as follows-- + + Cells of epiderm and hypoderm similar fig. 19. + Cells of epiderm and hypoderm distinct. + Cells of hypoderm uniform, thin or thick figs. 20, 21. + Cells of hypoderm biform fig. 22. + Cells of hypoderm multiform fig. 23. + +The biform hypoderm is not always obvious (clausa, Banksiana, etc.) +where in some leaves there is but one row of cells. But with the +examination of other leaves one or more cells of a second row will be +found with very thick walls. Among Hard Pines there is no Old World +species with a biform hypoderm. But there are a few American species +with uniform hypoderm (resinosa, tropicalis, patula and Greggii); while, +in some leaves of the few American Hard Pines with multiform hypoderm, +the uniform hypoderm is a variation. + + +THE GREEN TISSUE. + +In this tissue are the resin-ducts, each with a border of cells, +corresponding in appearance and in chemical reaction with the cells of +the hypoderm and with thinner or thicker walls. With reference to the +green tissue the foliar duct may be in one of four positions. + + 1. External against the hypoderm fig. 24. + 2. Internal against the endoderm fig. 28. + 3. Medial in the green tissue, touching neither + hypoderm nor endoderm fig. 26. + 4. Septal touching both endoderm and hypoderm, + forming a septum fig. 30. + +Among the Soft Pines the external duct is invariable in the subsection +Paracembra. It is also characteristic of the Strobi, where it is +sometimes associated with a medial duct. In the Cembrae and the +Flexiles, however, the ducts are external in some species, or medial or +both in others, without regard to the affinities of these species. + +Among the Hard Pines the external duct is characteristic of the Old +World, there being but two American Pines with this character (resinosa +and tropicalis). The internal duct is peculiar to Hard Pines of the New +World, its presence in Old World species being extremely rare. The +medial duct is common to species of both hemispheres, either alone or in +association with ducts in other positions (figs. 25, 27). The septal +duct is peculiar to a few species (oocarpa, tropicalis, and less +frequently Pringlei and Merkusii). I have also seen it in a leaf of P. +canariensis. The internal and septal ducts appear to be confined to the +species of warm-temperate or tropical countries. + +The number of resin-ducts of a single leaf may be limited to two or +three (strobus, koraiensis, etc.), but in many species it is exceedingly +variable and often large (pinaster, sylvestris, etc.). Eighteen or more +ducts in a single leaf have been recorded. Such large numbers are +peculiar to Pinus. Occasionally a single leaf, possibly the leaves of a +single tree, may be without ducts, but this is never true of all the +leaves of a species. + + +THE STELAR TISSUES. + +The walls of the endoderm are, in most species, uniform, but, with P. +albicaulis and some species of western North America, the outer walls of +the cells are conspicuously thickened (fig. 32). Both thin and thick +walls may be found among the leaves of the group Macrocarpae and of the +species longifolia. + +The fibro-vascular bundle of the leaf is single in Soft Pines, double in +Hard Pines. This distinction is employed by Koehne as the basis of his +two sections, Haploxylon and Diploxylon. The double bundle is usually +obvious even when the two parts are contiguous, but they are sometimes +completely merged into an apparently single bundle. This condition, +however, is never constant in a Hard Pine, and a little investigation +will discover a leaf with a true double bundle. + +Some cells about the fibro-vascular bundle acquire thick walls with the +appearance and chemical reaction of the hypoderm cells. Among the Soft +Pines this condition is most obvious in the group Cembroides. Among the +Hard Pines it appears in all degrees of development, being absent (figs. +24, 25), sometimes in irregular lines above and below the bundle (figs. +26, 27, 30, 31), or forming a conspicuous tissue between and partly +enclosing the two parts of the bundle (figs. 28, 29). + +The leaf-section furnishes sectional and other lesser distinctions. It +is often decisive in separating species otherwise difficult to +distinguish (nigra and resinosa or Thunbergii and sinensis, etc.). +Sometimes it is sufficiently distinct to determine a species without +recourse to other characters (tropicalis, oocarpa, Merkusii, etc.). An +intimate knowledge of the leaf-section, with an understanding of the +limits of its variation, is a valuable equipment for recognizing +species. + +[Illustration: PLATE II. SECONDARY LEAVES] + + +THE FLOWERS. Plate III, figs. 33-39. + +The flowers in Pinus are monoecious, the pistillate in the position of a +long shoot, taking the place of a subterminal or lateral bud, the +staminate in the position of a dwarf-shoot, taking the place of a +leaf-fascicle but confined to the basal part of the internode. + +Pistillate flowers are single or verticillate. On multinodal shoots they +are often multiserial, appearing on two or more nodes of the same +spring-shoot (fig. 33). On uninodal shoots they are necessarily +subterminal (fig. 34), the lateral pistillate flower being possible only +on multinodal shoots (fig. 35) where it is often associated with the +subterminal flower (fig. 33). Like the multinodal shoot, on which its +existence depends, the lateral pistillate flower cannot be employed for +grouping the species. It is merely the frequent, but not the essential, +evidence of condition of growth that is more perfectly characterized by +the shoot itself. + +Staminate catkins are in crowded clusters, capitate or elongate (figs. +36, 37), but with much variation in the number of catkins in each +cluster. In P. rigida I have found single catkins or clusters of all +numbers from two to seventy or more. In P. Massoniana and P. densiflora +a cluster attains such unusual length (fig. 37) that this character +becomes a valuable distinction between these species and P. sinensis, +which has short-capitate clusters. The catkins differ much in size, the +largest being found among the Hard Pines. + +In the connective of the binate pollen-sacs there is a notable +difference (figs. 38, 39), the smaller form being characteristic of the +Soft Pines. But this is not invariable (excelsa, sylvestris, etc.), and +the absence of complete data does not permit an accurate estimate of its +importance. + + +THE CONELET. Plate III, figs. 40-45. + +After pollination the pistillate flower closes and becomes the conelet, +the staminate flowers withering and falling away. The conelet makes no +appreciable growth until the following year. Like the pistillate flower +it may be subterminal or lateral, but a subterminal pistillate flower +may become a pseudolateral conelet by reason of a summer-growth (fig. +40-a). Such a condition may be recognized on the branchlets of the +present, and of the previous year (fig. 40-b), by the very short +internode and short leaves beyond the fruit. + +The conelet offers some distinctions of form, of color, and of length of +peduncle, while in some species (sylvestris, caribaea, etc.) its +reflexed position is an important specific character. The most important +distinctions, however, are found in its scales, which may be + + 1. entire subsection Cembra fig. 41. + 2. tuberculate tropicalis, etc. fig. 42. + 3. short-mucronate sylvestris, glabra, etc. fig. 43. + 4. long-mucronate aristata, contorta, etc. fig. 44. + 5. spinescent taeda, pungens, etc. fig. 45. + +[Illustration: PLATE III. FLOWERS AND CONELET] + + +THE CONE. Plate IV. + +The cone of Pinus shows great differences of color, form and tissue; +these are useful for specific and sectional distinctions, while the +gradual change from the primitive conditions of the Cembrae to the +elaborate form, structure and mode of dissemination of some serotinous +species are obvious evidence of an evolution among the species of +remarkable taxonomic range. A form new among Coniferae appears, the +oblique cone, and a new condition, the serotinous cone, both appearing +at first alone and, finally, in constant association. + + +COLOR OF THE CONE. + +With few exceptions the color of the ripe cone may be classified under +one of the following shades of brown or yellow. + + Nut-brown The stain of the walnut-husk. + Rufous brown A pronounced reddish nut-brown. + Fulvous brown A yellowish nut-brown. + Tawny yellow The color of the lion. + Orange Ochre-yellow to red-orange. + +These colors may be paler or deeper. They may be obscured by a fuscous +shade or may be modified by a dull or lustrous surface. The presence of +two or more of these shades in a single species and the inherent +difficulties of color description lessen the value of the character. +Nevertheless certain allied species, such as P. nigra and Thunbergii, or +P. densiflora and Massoniana, may be distinguished by the prevalent +difference in the color of their cones. + + +DIMENSIONS OF THE CONE. + +The cone is small, medium or large in different species, but varies +greatly under the influences of environment or of individual +peculiarities. The character possesses relative value only, for great +variation is possible in the same locality and even on the same tree. + + +THE PEDUNCLE. + +All conelets are pedunculate, but in some species the peduncle, even +when long (patula), may become overgrown and concealed by the basal +scales of the ripe cone. Articulation usually takes place between the +peduncle and the branch, sometimes with the loss of a few basal scales +which remain temporarily on the tree (ponderosa, palustris, etc.). With +P. Nelsonii, and to a less degree with P. Armandi, there is articulation +between the cone and its peduncle. + +There are several species bearing persistent cones with no articulation. +This condition appears in other genera, such as Larix and Picea, but +without obvious significance. In Pinus, however, the gradual appearance +of the persistent cone, for it is rare, common, prevalent or invariable +in different species, and its essential association with the serotinous +cone, suggest an evolution toward a definite end. + + +THE UMBO. + +The exposed part of the scale of the conelet is the umbo of the ripe +cone, a small definite area representing the earlier part of the +biennial growth of the cone. The position of the umbo on the apophysis +is the basis of Koehne's subdivision of the section Haploxylon. + + 1. Umbo terminal Subsection Cembra fig. 46-a. + 2. Umbo dorsal Subsection Paracembra fig. 46-b. + +Two other characters assist in establishing these subsections--the +conelet, unarmed in Cembra, armed in Paracembra--the pits of the +ray-cells of the wood, large in Cembra, small in Paracembra. + + +THE APOPHYSIS. + +The apophysis represents the later and larger growth of the cone-scale. +With a terminal umbo the margin of the apophysis is free and may be +rounded (fig. 49) or may taper to a blunt point (fig. 52), and any +extension of the scale is a terminal extension. With the dorsal umbo all +sides of the apophysis are confined between other apophyses, and any +extension is a dorsal thickening of the apophysis or a dorsal +protuberance. The outline of an apophysis with a dorsal umbo is +quadrangular, or it is irregularly pentagonal or hexagonal, the +different forms depending on the arrangement of the contiguous scales, +whether of definite or indefinite phyllotactic order, a distinction to +be considered later. + +The two positions of the umbo result from the relative growth of the +dorsal and ventral surfaces of the cone-scale. With the terminal umbo +the growth of both surfaces is uniform, with the dorsal umbo the growth +is unequal. A true terminal umbo rests on the surface of the underlying +scale, although several species with terminal umbos show the first +stages of the dorsal umbo. The umbo of P. Lambertiana or of P. flexilis +does not touch the surface of the scale below, and a small portion of +the under side of the apophysis is brought into view on the closed cone. +The cone of P. albicaulis (Plate VIII, fig. 90) shows all degrees of +development between a terminal umbo near the apex of the cone and a +dorsal umbo near its base. + +The growth of the apophysis may be limited and constant (strobus, +echinata, etc.) or exceedingly variable, ranging from a slight thickness +to a long protuberance (pseudostrobus, montana, etc.). The protuberance +is usually reflexed from the unequal growth of the two surfaces. With +the terminal umbo the protuberance lengthens the scale, with the dorsal +umbo it thickens the scale. It is sometimes a specific character +(ayacahuite, longifolia) appearing on all cones of the species, +sometimes a varietal form, associated in the same species with an +unprolonged apophysis (sylvestris, montana). + +On different parts of the same cone, base, centre or apex, the +dimensions of the apophyses differ, but at each level the scales may be +uniform on all sides of the cone. That is to say, the cone is +symmetrical with reference to any plane passing through its axis. This, +the symmetrical cone, is characteristic of all other genera of the +Abietineae, and is invariable among the Soft Pines and in many Hard +Pines (figs. 47, 48, 52, 54). But among the Hard Pines there is +gradually developed a new form of cone with smaller flatter apophyses on +the anterior, and larger thicker apophyses on the posterior surface. +This is the peculiar oblique cone of Pinus (figs. 50, 51, 53), +symmetrical with reference to one plane only, which includes the axis of +both cone and branch. The oblique cone is a gradual development among +the Hard Pines; in some species it is associated as a varietal form with +the symmetrical cone, and finally, in some serotinous species, it is the +constant form. + + +THE OBLIQUE CONE. + +When the oblique cone is merely a varietal form (halepensis, etc.), it +gives the impression of an accident, resulting from the reflexed +position of the cone and the consequent greater development of the +scales receiving a greater amount of light and air. But with the +serotinous cones (radiata, attenuata), the advantages of this form +become apparent. The cones of these species are in crowded nodal +clusters, reflexed against the branch (fig. 50). The inner, anterior +scales are perfectly protected by their position, while the outer, +posterior scales are exposed to the weather. These last only are very +thick; that is to say, there is an economical distribution of protective +tissue, with the greatest amount where it is most needed. The oblique +form is peculiarly adapted for a cone destined to remain on the tree for +twenty years or more and to preserve its seeds unimpaired. Like the +persistent cone, the oblique cone finds in association with the +serotinous cone a definite reason for existence. + +[Illustration: PLATE IV. THE CONE] + + +PHYLLOTAXIS. Plate V. + +There is an obvious difference between the cones of the two sections of +the genus. Those of the Soft Pines (figs. 55, 56) have larger and fewer +scales, those of the Hard Pines (figs. 57, 58) have more numerous and +smaller scales, in proportion to the size of the cone. The former +condition represents a lower, the latter condition represents a higher, +order of phyllotaxis. + + +DEFINITE PHYLLOTAXIS. + +On a cylindrical axis with scales of the same size, the spiral +arrangement would appear as in fig. 62, where the scales are +quadrangular and any four adjacent scales are in mutual contact at their +sides or angles. These four scales lie on four obvious secondary spirals +(fig. 59, a-a, b-b, c-c, d-d). According to the phyllotactic order of +the scales these may be the spirals of 2, 3, 5, 8 or of 3, 5, 8, 13 or +of 5, 8, 13, 21 etc., etc., from which combinations the primary spiral, +on which the scales are inserted on the cone-axis, can be easily +deduced. Four quadrangular scales in mutual contact represent the +condition of definite phyllotaxis. If the cone is conical, definite +phyllotaxis would be possible among all the scales only when the size of +the scales diminishes in equal measure with the gradual diminution of +the cone's diameter. Such a hypothetical cone is shown in fig. 61. + + +INDEFINITE PHYLLOTAXIS. + +On an imaginary cone of conical form and with scales of equal size +throughout, there must be more scales about the base than about the apex +of the cone. The phyllotactic conditions must differ, and the obvious +spirals, in passing from base to apex, must undergo readjustment. If the +scales at the base are in definite phyllotactic order and those at the +apex are in the next lower order, it is evident that intermediate +scales, in the gradual change from one condition to the other, must +represent different conditions of indefinite phyllotaxis, while those in +a central position on the cone may belong equally to either of two +orders. + +A Pine cone is never absolutely cylindrical nor do its scales vary in +size proportionately to the change of diameter. Most of the scales of a +cone are in indefinite phyllotactic relation, while definite phyllotaxis +is found only at points on the cone. + +As an extreme illustration, the cone of P. pinaster (fig. 60) shows four +mutually contiguous quadrangular apophyses at (a), lying on the obvious +spirals 5, 8, 13, 21, at (b) four similar apophyses on the spirals 3, 5, +8, 13, and at (c) four others on the spirals 2, 3, 5, 8. Between these +three points are apophyses of irregular pentagonal or hexagonal outline, +with three scales only in mutual contact (figs. 63, 64). Such are the +majority of the scales of the cone and represent more or less indefinite +conditions of phyllotaxis. + +The cones of Hard Pines, by reason of relatively more and smaller scales +and of a more conical form, attain a higher phyllotaxis and a more +complex condition, two or even three orders being represented on a +single cone; while the cones of Soft Pines, by reason of relatively +fewer and larger scales and a more cylindrical form, are of lower +phyllotaxis, with one order only more or less definitely presented. +Therefore phyllotaxis furnishes another distinction between the two +sections of the genus, but its further employment is exceedingly +restricted on account of the constant repetition of the same orders +among the species. + +[Illustration: PLATE V. PHYLLOTAXIS OF THE CONE] + + +THE CONE-TISSUES. Plate VI. + +The axis of the cone is a woody shell, enclosing a wide pith and covered +by a thick cortex traversed by resin-ducts. By removing the scales and +cortex from the axis (fig. 65) the wood is seen to be in sinuous strands +uniting above and below fusiform openings, the points of insertion of +the cone-scales. From the wood, at each insertion, three stout strands +enter the scale, dividing and subdividing into smaller tapering +strands whose delicate tips converge toward the umbo. Fig. 70 represents +a magnified cross-section of half the cone-scale of P. Greggii; at (a) +is a compact dorsal plate of bast cells; at (e) is a ventral plate of +the same tissue but of less amount; at (b) is the softer brown tissue +enclosing the wood-strands (d, d) (the last much more magnified in fig. +69) and the resin-ducts (e, e). + + +WOOD STRANDS. + +The wood-strands, forming the axis of the cone, differ in tenacity in +the two sections of the genus. Those of the Soft Pines are easily pulled +apart by the fingers, those of the Hard Pines are tougher in various +degrees and cannot be torn apart without the aid of a tool. This +difference is correlated with differences in other tissues, all of them +combining in a gradual change from a cone of soft yielding texture to +one of great hardness and durability. + +If a cone scale of P. ayacahuite is stripped of its brown and bast +tissues (fig. 66) and is immersed in water and subsequently dried, there +is at first a flexion toward the cone-axis (fig. 67) and then away from +it (fig. 68). The wood-strands are hygroscopic and coöperate with the +bast tissues in opening and closing the cone. This appears to be true of +all species excepting the three species of the Cembrae, whose strands +are so small and weak that they are not obviously affected by +hygrometric changes. + + +BAST TISSUE. + +With the exception of the three species of the Cembrae the inner part of +the cone-scales is protected by sclerenchymatous cells forming hard +dorsal and ventral plates (fig. 70, a, c). In Soft Pines these cells are +subordinate to the more numerous parenchymatous cells, but in Hard Pines +the sclerenchyma increases in amount until, among the serotinous +species, it is the predominating tissue of the cone-scale, giving to +these cones their remarkable strength and durability. + +This bast tissue is hygroscopic and, with its greater thickness on the +dorsal surface, there is a much greater strain on that side of the +scale, tending to force the scales apart when they are ripe and dry, and +subsequently closing and opening the cone on rainy and sunny days. + +The cone, during the second season's growth, is completely closed, its +scales adhering together with more or less tenacity. In most species the +hygroscopic energy of the scales is sufficient to open the cone under +the dry condition of its maturity, but with several species the adhesion +is so persistent that some of the cones remain closed for many years. +These are the peculiar serotinous cones of the genus. + + +THE SEROTINOUS CONE. + +As an illustration of the area to which the adhesion is confined, a +section may be sawed from a cone of P. attenuata (fig. 71). The axis and +the scales that have been severed from their apophyses (b) can be easily +pushed out of the annulus (a), which is composed wholly of apophyses so +firmly adherent that they will successfully resist a strong effort to +break them apart. When immersed in boiling water, however, the ring +falls to pieces. An examination of these pieces discovers adhesion only +on a narrow ventral border under the apophysis and on a corresponding +dorsal border back of the apophysis. The rest of the scale is not +adherent, so that the seed is free to fall at the opening of the cone. + +The serotinous cone is a gradual development, wanting in most species, +rare in a few, less or more frequent in others. A similar evolution of +the persistent cone, of the oblique cone and of the cone-tissues has +been already discussed. All these progressive characters culminate in +mutual association in P. radiata and its allies. The result is a highly +specialized fruit that should convey taxonomic significance of some +kind. + +With all serotinous species that I have seen, some of the trees open +their cones at maturity, others at indefinite intervals. That is to say, +the seed of a prolific year is not at the mercy of a single, perhaps +unfavorable season. The chances of successful germination are much +increased by the intermittent seed-release peculiar to these Pines. Such +a method of dissemination must accrue to the advantage of a species. In +other words, this intermittent dissemination and the oblique form of +cone with its perfected tissues all mark the highest development of the +genus. + + +THE SEED. Plate VI. Figs. 72-79. + +The seed of Pinus contains an embryo, with the cotyledons clearly +defined, embedded in albumen, which is protected by a bony testa with an +external membranous spermoderm, produced, in most species, into an +effective wing. While the seed of other genera of the Abietineae shows +no striking difference among the species, that of Pinus is remarkably +variable, presenting alike the most primitive and the most elaborate +forms among the Conifers. These differences are valuable for the +segregation of kindred species and for some specific distinctions. + + +WINGLESS SEEDS. + +With wingless seeds the main distinction is found in the spermoderm, +which is entire in one species only, P. koraiensis. In P. cembra it is +wanting on the ventral surface of the nut, but on the dorsal surface, it +is adnate partly to the nut, partly to the cone-scale. The nut of P. +albicaulis and that of P. cembroides are quite bare of membranous cover. +The spermoderm of P. flexilis is reduced to a marginal border, slightly +produced into a rudimentary wing adnate to the nut. + + +THE ADNATE WING. + +In P. strobus, longifolia and their allies and in P. Balfouriana the +spermoderm is prolonged into an effective wing-blade from a marginal +adnate base like that of P. flexilis. This adnate wing cannot be +detached without injury. + + +THE ARTICULATE WING. + +The articulate wing can be removed from the nut and can be replaced +without injury. An ineffective form of this wing is seen in the +Gerardianae and in P. pinea, where the blade is very short and the base +has no effective grasp on the nut. + +The base of the effective articulate wing contains hygroscopic tissue +which acts with the hygroscopic tissue of the cone-scales. The dry +conditions that open the cone and release the seeds cause the bifurcate +base of the wing to grasp the nut more firmly. + +This articulate wing is found in P. aristata and in all Hard Pines +except P. pinea, longifolia and canariensis. The wing-blade is usually +membranous throughout, but in some species there is a thickening of the +base of the blade that meets the membranous apical part in an oblique +line along which the wing is easily broken apart. This last condition +attains in P. Coulteri and its associates a remarkable development. + +Plate VI, fig. 72 shows the wingless seed of P. cembroides; fig. 73 +represents the seed of P. flexilis, with a rudimentary wing; fig. 74 +shows two seeds of P. strobus, intact and with the wing broken away; +fig. 75 represents the articulate wing, whose bifurcate base when wet +(fig. 76) tends to open and release the nut. When dry (fig. 77) the +forks of the base, in the absence of the nut, close together and cross +their tips; figs. 78, 79 show the peculiar reinforced articulate wing of +P. Coulteri. + +Such wide variation in so important an organ suggests generic +difference. But here we are met by the association of the different +forms in species evidently closely allied. The two Foxtail Pines are so +similar in most characters that they have been considered, with good +reason, to be specifically identical; yet the seed-wing of P. +Balfouriana is adnate, that of P. aristata articulate. P. Ayacahuite +produces not only the characteristic wing of the Strobi, adnate, long +and effective, but also, in the northern variety, a seed with a +rudimentary wing, the exact counterpart of the seed of P. flexilis. In +both sections of the genus are found the effective adnate wing (Strobi +and Longifoliae) and the inefficient articulate wing (Gerardianae and +Pineae). A little examination of all forms of the seed will show that +they blend gradually one into another. + +The color of the wing is occasionally peculiar, as in the group +Longifoliae. There is usually no constancy in this character, for the +wing may be uniform in color or variously striated in seeds of the same +species. The length and breadth of the seed-wing, being dependent on the +varying sizes of the cone-scale, differ in the same cone. They are also +inconstant in different cones of the same species, and of this +inconstancy the seed of P. ayacahuite furnishes the most notable +example. + +[Illustration: PLATE VI. CONE-TISSUES AND SEEDS] + + +THE WOOD. Plate VII. + +With the exception of the medullary rays, a very small proportion of the +whole, the wood of Pinus, as seen in cross-section (fig. 82), is a +homogeneous tissue of wood-tracheids with interspersed resin-ducts. In +tangential section the medullary rays appear in two forms, linear, +without a resin-duct, and fusiform, with a central resin-duct. In radial +section the cells of the linear rays are of two kinds, ray-tracheids, +forming the upper and lower limits of the ray, characterized by small +bordered pits, and ray-cells, between the tracheids, characterized by +simple pits. + +The walls of the ray-tracheids may be smooth or dentate; the pits of the +ray-cells may be large or small. These conditions admit of four +combinations, all of which appear in the medullary rays of Pinus, and of +which a schematic representation is given in Plate VII. These +combinations are + + Ray-tracheids with smooth walls. Soft Pines. + Ray-cells with large pits Subsection Cembra fig. 80. + Ray-cells with small pits Subsection Paracembra fig. 81. + + Ray-tracheids with dentate walls. Hard Pines. + Ray-cells with large pits Group Lariciones fig. 83. + Ray-cells with small pits Other Hard Pines fig. 84. + +This, the simplest classification of Pine-wood, is not without +exceptions. P. pinea of the Hard Pines resembles, in its +wood-characters, P. Gerardiana and P. Bungeana of the Soft Pines. The +dentate ray-tracheids of P. longifolia are not always obvious. The +tracheids of P. luchuensis, according to Bergerstein (Wiesner Festschr. +112), have smooth walls. My specimen shows dentate tracheids. There is +also evidence of transition from small to large pits (I. W. Bailey in +Am. Nat. xliv. 292). Both large and small pits appear in my specimen of +P. Merkusii. + +Of other wood-characters, the presence or absence of tangential pits in +the tracheids of the late wood establishes a distinction between Soft +and Hard Pines. These pits, however, while always present in Soft Pines, +are not always absent in Hard Pines. The single and multiple rows of +resin-ducts in the wood of the first year may prove to be a reliable +sectional distinction, but this character has not been sufficiently +investigated to test its constancy. The wood-characters, therefore, +however decisive they may be for establishing the phylogenetic relations +of different genera, must be employed in the classification of the Pines +with the same reservations that apply to external characters. + +Ray-tracheids with dentate walls and ray-cells with large pits are +peculiar to Pinus. Therefore the presence of these characters, alone or +in combination, is sufficient evidence for the recognition of Pine-wood. +But the combination of smooth tracheids with small pits (subsection +Paracembra) Pinus shares with Picea, Larix and Pseudotsuga. + +Among Hard Pines the size of the pits has a certain geographical +significance. The large pits are found in all species of the Old World +except P. halepensis and P. pinaster; the small pits in all species of +the New World except P. resinosa and P. tropicalis. The Asiatic P. +Merkusii with both large and small pits is not strictly an exception to +this geographical distinction. The four exceptional species by this and +by other characters unite the Hard Pines of the two hemispheres. + + +THE BARK. + +Bark is the outer part of the cortex that has perished, having been cut +off from nourishment by the thin hard plates of the bark-scales. In the +late and early bark-formation is found a general but by no means an +exact distinction between Soft and Hard Pines. In the Soft Pines the +cortex remains alive for many years, adjusting itself by growth to the +increasing thickness of the wood. The trunks of young trees remain +smooth and without rifts. In the Hard Pines the bark-formation begins +early and the trunks of young trees are covered with a scaly or rifted +bark. The smooth upper trunk of older trees is invariable in Soft Pines, +but in Hard Pines there are several exceptions to early bark-formation. +These exceptions are easily recognized in the field, and the character +is of decisive specific importance (glabra, halepensis, etc.). + +Among species with early bark-formation are two forms of bark: 1, +cumulative, sufficiently persistent to acquire thickness and the +familiar dark gray and fuscous-brown shades of bark long exposed to the +weather; 2, deciduous, constantly falling away in thin scales and +exposing fresh red inner surfaces. The latter are commonly known as Red +Pines, as distinguished from Black Pines with dark cumulative bark. +Deciduous bark changes after some years to cumulative bark, and the +upper trunk only of mature trees is red. Red Pines, although usually +recognizable by their bark, are by no means constant in this character. +Oecological or pathological influences may check the fall of the +bark-scales, and then the distinction between the upper and lower parts +of the trunk becomes lost. + +[Illustration: PLATE VII. THE WOOD] + + + +SUMMARY + +The various characters that have been considered in the previous pages +may be classified under different heads, some of them applicable to the +whole genus, others to larger or smaller groups of species. + + +GENERIC CHARACTERS + +Several characters, quite distinct from those of other genera, are +common to all the species. + + 1. The primary leaf--appearing as a scale or bract throughout the + life of the tree. + 2. The bud--its constant position at the nodes. + 3. The internode--its three distinct divisions. + 4. The secondary leaves--in cylindrical fascicles with a basal + sheath. + 5. The pistillate flower--its constant nodal position and its + verticillate clusters. + 6. The staminate flower--its constant basal position on the + internode and its compact clusters. + 7. The cone--its clearly defined annual growths. + +Pinus is also peculiar in the dimorphism of shoots and leaves and in +their constant interrelations with the diclinous flowers. Evolutionary +processes develop features peculiar to Pinus alone (the oblique cone, +etc.), but confined to a limited number of species. + + +SECTIONAL CHARACTERS + +There are several characters that actually or potentially divide the +genus into two distinct sections, popularly known as Soft and Hard +Pines. + + 1. The fibro-vascular bundle of the leaf, single or double. + 2. The base of the bract subtending the leaf-fascicle, non-decurrent + or decurrent + 3. The phyllotaxis of the cone, simple or complex. + 4. The flower-bud, its less or greater development. + +Some characters indicate the same distinction but are subject each to a +few exceptions. + + 5. The fascicle-sheath, deciduous or persistent. + 6. The walls of the ray-tracheids, smooth or dentate. + 7. The connective of the pollen-sacs, large or small. + 8. The formation of bark, late or early. + +SUBSECTIONAL CHARACTERS + +An exact subdivision of the Soft Pines is possible on the following +characters. + + 1. The umbo of the cone-scales, terminal or dorsal. + 2. The scales of the conelet, mutic or armed. + 3. The pits of the ray-cells, large or small. + + +EVOLUTIONAL CHARACTERS + +The progressive evolution of the fruit of Pinus, from a symmetrical cone +of weak tissues, bearing a wingless seed, to an indurated oblique cone +with an elaborate form of winged seed and an intermittent dissemination, +appears among the species in various degrees of development as follows-- + + The seed + + 1. wingless. + 2. with a rudimentary wing. + 3. with an effective adnate wing. + 4. with an ineffective articulate wing. + 5. with an effective articulate wing. + 6. with an articulate wing, thickened at the base of the blade. + + The cone + + 1. indehiscent. + 2. dehiscent and deciduous. + 3. dehiscent and persistent. + 4. persistent and serotinous. + + and as to its form + + 5. symmetrical. + 6. subsymmetrical. + 7. oblique. + +These different forms of the seed and, to some extent, of the cone, are +available for segregating the species into groups of closely related +members; while the gradual progression of the fruit, from a primitive to +a highly specialized form of cone and method of dissemination, points to +a veritable taxonomic evolution which is here utilized as the +fundamental motive of the systematic classification of the species. + + +SPECIFIC CHARACTERS + +All aspects of vegetative and reproductive organs may contribute toward +a determination of species, but the importance of each character is +often relative, being conclusive with one group of species, useless with +another. Characters considered by earlier authors to be invariable with +species, such as the dimensions of leaf or cone, the number of leaves in +the fascicle, the position of the resin-ducts, the presence of pruinose +branchlets, etc., prove to be inconstant in some species. In fact, as +the botanical horizon enlarges, the varietal limits of the species +broaden and many restrictions imposed by earlier systems are gradually +disappearing. + +Variation is the preliminary step toward the creation of species, which +come into being with the elimination of intermediate forms. Variation in +a species may be the result of its participation in the evolutionary +processes culminating in the serotinous Pines, or it may result from the +ability of the species to adapt itself to various environments by +sympathetic modifications of growth, or it may arise from some +peculiarity of the individual tree. + +Evolutionary variation is associated with the gradual appearance of the +persistent, the oblique and the serotinous cone, and of the multinodal +spring-shoot. For these conditions appear in less or greater prevalence +among the species of the genus. + +Variation induced by environment finds familiar illustrations among the +species that can survive at the limits of vegetation and can meet these +inhospitable conditions by a radical change of all growing parts. Such +variations are mainly of dimensions, but, with some species, the number +of fascicle-leaves is affected and the shorter growing-season may modify +the cone-tissues. In Mexico and Central America are found extremes of +climate within small areas and easily within the range of dissemination +from a single tree. The cause of the bewildering host of varietal forms, +connecting widely contrasted extremes, seems to lie in the facile +adaptability of those Pines, which are able to spread from the tropical +base of a mountain to a less or greater distance toward its snow-capped +summit. + +The peculiarities of individual trees that induce abnormally short or +long growths, the dwarf or other monstrous forms, the variegations in +leaf-coloring, etc., etc., are not available for classification, for +they may appear in any species, in fact in any genus of Conifers. These +variations are artificially multiplied for commercial and decorative +purposes. But inasmuch as they are repeated in all species and genera of +the Coniferae that have been long under the observation of skillful +gardeners, their significance has a broader scope than that imposed by +the study of a single genus. + + + + +PART II + +CLASSIFICATION OF THE SPECIES + + +The following classification is based on the gradual evolution of the +fruit from a cone symmetrical in form, parenchymatous in tissue, +indehiscent and deciduous at maturity, releasing its wingless seed by +disintegration--to a cone oblique in form, very strong and durable in +tissue, persistent on the tree, intermittently dehiscent, releasing its +winged seeds partly at maturity, partly at indefinite intervals during +several years. This evolution embraces two extreme forms of fruit, one +the most primitive, the other the most elaborate, among Conifers. + +Two sections of the genus, Soft and Hard Pines, are distinguished by +several correlated characters, and moreover are distinct by obvious +differences in the tissues of their cones as well as in the quality and +appearance of their wood. + +With the Soft Pines the species group naturally under two subsections on +the position of the umbo, the anatomy of the wood and the armature of +the conelet. In one subsection (Cembra) are found three species, P. +cembra and its allies, with the cone-tissues so completely +parenchymatous that the cones cannot release the seeds except by +disintegration. In both subsections there is a gradual evolution from a +wingless nut to one with an effective wing, adnate in one subsection, +adnate and articulate in the other. The different stages of this +evolution are so distinct that the Soft Pines are easily separated into +definite groups. + +Among the Hard Pines a few species show characters that are peculiar to +the Soft Pines. These exceptional species form a subsection +(Parapinaster) by themselves. + +With the remaining species, the majority of the Pines, the distinctions +that obtain among Soft Pines have disappeared. The dorsal umbo, the +articulate seed-wing, the persistent fascicle-sheath, the dorsal and +ventral stomata of the leaf and its serrate margins, the dentate walls +of the ray-tracheids have become fixed and constant. But a new form of +seed-wing appears, with a thickened blade, assuming such proportions in +P. Sabiniana and its two allies that these three constitute a distinct +group, remarkable also for the size of its cones. + +Here also appear a new form of fruit, the oblique cone, and a new method +of dissemination, the serotinous cone. Associated with the latter are +the persistent cone and the multinodal spring-shoot. These characters do +not develop in such perfect sequence and regularity that they can be +employed for grouping the species without forcing some of them into +unnatural association. The oblique cone first appears sporadically here +and there and without obvious reason. The persistent cone, the first +stage of the serotinous cone, is equally sporadic in the earlier stages +of evolution. The same may be said of the multinodal shoot. + +Nevertheless these characters show an obvious progression toward a +definite goal, where they are all united in a small group of species +remarkable for the form and texture of their cones, for a peculiar +seed-release and for the vigor and rapidity of their growth. It is +possible, with the assistance of other characters, to segregate these +species in three groups in which the affinities are respected and the +general trend of their evolution is preserved. + +The first group, the Lariciones, contains species with large ray-pits, +cones dehiscent at maturity, and uninodal spring-shoots. They are, with +two exceptions, P. resinosa and P. tropicalis, Old World species. + +The second group, the Australes, contains species with small ray-pits, +cones dehiscent at maturity and spring-shoots gradually changing, among +the species, from a uninodal to a multinodal form. They are, without +exception, species of the New World. + +The third group, the Insignes, contains the serotinous species. The +ray-pits are small and the spring-shoots are, with two exceptions, +multinodal. With two exceptions, P. halepensis and P. pinaster, they are +New World species. + +These three groups, being the progressive sequence of a lineal +evolution, are not absolutely circumscribed, but are more or less +connected through a few intermediate species of each group. The +systematic position of these intermediate species is determined by their +obvious affinities. It cannot be expected that the variations, which +take an important part in the evolution of the species, progress with +equal step or in perfect correlation with each other. + +As to specific determinations, a little experience in the field +discloses an amount of variation in species that does not always appear +in the descriptions of authors; and species that are under the closest +scrutiny of botanists, foresters or horticulturalists, attest by their +multiple synonymy their wide variation. The possibilities of variation +are indefinite and, with adaptable Pines, the range of variation is +somewhat proportionate to change of climate. In mountainous countries, +where there are warm sheltered valleys with rich soil below cold barren +ledges, the most variable Pines are found. The western species of North +America, for instance, are much more variable than the eastern species, +while in Mexico, a tropical country with snow-capped mountains, the +variation is greatest. + +Therefore in the limitation of species undue importance should not be +given to characters responsive to environment, such as the dimensions of +leaf or cone, the number of leaves in the fascicle, etc. Moreover, there +are familiar examples (P. sylvestris, etc.) that show the possibility of +wide differences in the cone of the same species. + +In the following classification species only are considered without +attempting to determine varietal or other subspecific forms. But +varieties are often mentioned as one of the factors illustrating the +scope of species. Synonymy serves a like purpose, but synonyms not +conveying useful information are omitted, Roezl's list of Mexican +species, for instance, and variations in the orthography of specific +names. + + +PINUS + + 1755 Pinus Duhamel, Traité des Arbres, ii. 121. + 1790 Apinus Necker, Elem.

Branchlets of one or more internodes, each internode in +three parts--a length without leaves, a length bearing leaves and a node +of buds. Cone requiring two, rarely three years to mature, displaying +its annual growths by distinct areas on each scale. Seeds wingless or +winged, edible and nutritious. + +The Pines are confined to the northern hemisphere, but grow in all +climates and under all conditions of soil, temperature and humidity +where trees can grow. Some of the species are of very restricted range, +but others are adaptable and can cover wide areas. The sixty-six species +are distributed as follows-- + + Eastern Hemisphere, 23. + + 1 exclusively African (Canary Islands). + 2 exclusively European. + 3 about the Mediterranean Basin. + 2 common to Europe and northern Asia. + 14 exclusively Asiatic. + + Western Hemisphere, 43. + + 28 in western North America, of which 12 are confined to Mexico + and Central America. + 15 in eastern North America, of which 2 are exclusively West Indian. + +The two sections of the genus correspond with those of Koehne (Deutsch. +Dendrol. 28 [1893]) and his two names, Haploxylon and Diploxylon, are +adopted here, together with his two subsections of Haploxylon, Cembra +and Paracembra. + +Of the two subsections of Diploxylon, Pinaster has been employed by +Endlicher (Syn. Conif. 166 [1847]) and later authors for smaller or +larger groups of Hard Pines. The subsection Parapinaster is now +proposed. + +The names of groups, Cembrae, Strobi, Cembroides, Gerardianae, +Balfourianae, Pineae, Lariciones and Australes, are taken from +Engelmann's Revision of the Genus Pinus (Trans. Acad. Sci. St. Louis, +iv. 175-178 [1880]). The remainder, Flexiles, Leiophyllae, Longifoliae, +Insignes and Macrocarpae, are here proposed. + +In order to bring the illustrations within the limits of the page the +dimensions of cone and leaf, as shown on the plates, are a little +smaller than life.

There are but two species of Diploxylon with + deciduous sheaths, P. leiophylla and P. Lumholtzii, both of them + easily recognized. The deciduous sheath, therefore, is an obvious and + useful means for recognizing the Soft Pines. On the characters of the + fruit and the wood Haploxylon can be divided into two subsections. + + a. Cembra Umbo of the cone-scale terminal. + b. Paracembra Umbo of the cone-scale dorsal. + +=Cembra= + +Umbo of the cone-scale terminal. Scales of the conelet unarmed.

It is found at the timber-line of + many stations and forms, in exposed situations, flat table-like masses + close to the ground.

It was united with P. flexilis + by Parlatore and Gordon, and, later, was referred to that species as a + varietal form by Engelmann (in Brewer & Watson, Bot.

Cones from 6 to 25 cm. +long, ovate or subcylindrical, short-pedunculate; apophyses pale tawny +yellow, or yellow ochre, lustrous, often prolonged and more or less +reflexed, thick, the margin together with the umbo raised above the +surface of the cone. + + This species grows on the Rocky Mountains from Alberta in the Dominion + of Canada to Chihuahua in northern Mexico and ranges westward to the + eastern slope of the Sierras and to the southern mountains of + California. The wood, where accessible, is manufactured into lumber. + It may be seen in the Arnold Arboretum and in the Royal Gardens at + Kew. + + P. flexilis is recognized by its lustrous yellow cones.

Leaves +serrulate, stomatiferous on all faces, the sheath persistent. Walls of +the tracheids of the medullary rays dentate. + + Forty-two of the sixty-six species of Pinus are included in this + subsection.

The distinctions of umbo and + seed have disappeared. The umbo here is invariably dorsal, the + seed-wing invariably articulate. + + New forms, however, are gradually evolved--the seed with a thick + wing-blade, the indurated oblique cone, the serotinous cone with its + intermittent seed-release, and the multinodal spring-shoot. There are, + moreover, new forms of leaf-hypoderm and a new position of the + resin-duct. + + Of these new characters, the thick wing-blade attains such proportions + in the three species of the Macrocarpae that they can be grouped + apart. But the characters that finally culminate in a lateral oblique + serotinous cone are so gradually and irregularly developed that they + offer no divisional distinctions. With the aid of wood and leaf + characters, however, groups can be established which preserve the + evolutionary sequence and, at the same time, the obvious affinity of + the species. + + Wing-blade thin or slightly thickened at the base. + Cones dehiscent at maturity. + Pits of the ray-cells large X.

Macrocarpae + + The species of this subsection are very difficult, if not impossible, + to classify by the usual method, which groups all species under a few + characters assumed to be invariable and of fundamental importance. + Such a method can be successfully applied to the Soft Pines and to + some of the Hard Pines, but cannot be applied to all the Hard Pines + without forcing some of them into unnatural associations. + + To take an example, the group Pseudostrobus, characterized by + pentamerous leaf-fascicles, appears in many systems. In this group are + placed P. Torreyana and P. leiophylla. Another group, with trimerous + fascicles, contains P. Sabiniana and P. taeda. Now there are no two + species more obviously related by important peculiarities than P. + Torreyana and P. Sabiniana; nevertheless they are, by this method, + kept apart and associated with species which they resemble in no + important particular. + + An attempt is made here to avoid such incongruities. Groups X, XI and + XII represent different stages of evolution. In the Lariciones the + cone is symmetrical, and dehiscent and deciduous at maturity, while + the spring-shoot is uninodal. In the Australes there is a similar + cone, but the spring-shoot gradually becomes multinodal. In the + Insignes the cone is oblique, persistent and serotinous, and the + spring-shoot is multinodal. + + These definitions state the degree of evolution attained by each + group, but not all the species of a group conform exactly with its + definition. In each group are species with a characteristic of another + group. Among the Lariciones are a few species with both symmetrical + and oblique cones, and two with persistent cones. Similar exceptions + occur among the Australes. Among the Insignes are a few species with + symmetrical cones, and two with cones that are rarely, if ever, + serotinous. + + There is, however, no difficulty in fixing the systematic position of + these exceptional species through other characters which show their + true affinity. They are placed with the species which they most + resemble. Their exceptional characters are merely the evidence of the + evolution that pervades and unites the groups. Therefore the + definition of a group is not necessarily the exact definition of its + species, and a species is placed in a group because all its + characters, specific and evolutional, show a closer affinity with that + group than with the species of any other. + + +=X.

At still + higher altitudes and up to the timber-limit the var. Hartwegii, + Engelmann, with short leaves and a small nearly black cone is found. + Among these varieties there is no such sharp distinction as these + definitions imply. All dimensions of fruit and foliage and the various + brown and black shades of the cone blend into each other through + endless intergradations.

Leaves +prevalently in fascicles of 3, but varying from 2 to 5 or more, from 12 +to 36 cm. long; resin-ducts medial, hypoderm uniform or multiform, outer +walls of the endoderm thick. Conelet mucronate, the mucro often +reflexed. Cones from 8 to 20 cm. long, ovate-conic, symmetrical, +deciduous and usually leaving a few basal scales on the tree; apophyses +tawny yellow to fuscous brown, lustrous, elevated along a transverse +keel, sometimes protuberant and reflexed, the umbo salient and forming +the base of a pungent, persistent prickle. + + This species ranges from southern British Columbia over the mountains + between the Pacific and the eastern foot-hills of the Rocky Mountains, + including the Black Hills of South Dakota, to the northeastern Sierras + of Mexico, to northern Jalisco and Lower California, forming, in many + localities, large forests and furnishing the best Hard Pine timber of + the western United States. It attains its best growth on the Sierras + of California and is, next to P. Lambertiana, the tallest of the + Pines. + + Like P.

Newby + Chief Executive and Director + gbnewby@pglaf.org + + +Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. diff --git a/26798-8.zip b/26798-8.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..ac1ffb7 --- /dev/null +++ b/26798-8.zip diff --git a/26798-h.zip b/26798-h.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..c618dda --- /dev/null +++ b/26798-h.zip diff --git a/26798-h/26798-h.htm b/26798-h/26798-h.htm new file mode 100644 index 0000000..651ae7e --- /dev/null +++ b/26798-h/26798-h.htm @@ -0,0 +1,5924 @@ +<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" + "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> + +<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> + <head> + <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=iso-8859-1" /> + <meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css" /> + <title> + The Project Gutenberg eBook of The Genus Pinus, by George Russel Shaw. + </title> + <style type="text/css"> +/*<![CDATA[ XML blockout */ +<!-- +body { + margin-left: 10%; + margin-right: 10%; +} + + h1,h2 { + text-align: center; + clear: both; +} + + h3 { + text-align: left; + font-weight: normal; + margin-top: 2em; + clear: both; +} + + h4 { + text-align: left; + font-weight: normal; + margin-top: 2em; + clear: both; +} + + h5 { + text-align: left; + font-weight: normal; + clear: both; +} + + h6 { + text-align: left; + font-weight: normal; + clear: both; +} + + .part_2 h3 { + text-align: center; + font-weight: normal; + margin-top: 2em; + clear: both; +} + + .part_2 h4 { + text-align: left; + font-size: 1em; + font-weight: bold; + margin-top: 2em; + margin-bottom: 1em; + clear: both; +} + + .part_2 h5 { + text-align: center; + font-size: 1em; + font-weight: bold; + margin-top: 2em; + margin-bottom: 1em; + clear: both; +} + + .part_2 h6 { + text-align: left; + font-weight: normal; + font-size: 1em; + margin-top: 2em; + margin-bottom: 1em; + clear: both; +} + +p { + margin-top: 1em; + margin-bottom: 0; + line-height: 1.4em; + text-align: justify; + text-indent: 0; +} + +p.noindent { + text-indent: 0; +} + +p.break { + margin-top:2em; +} + +hr { + width: 65%; + margin-top: 2em; + margin-bottom: 2em; + margin-left: auto; + margin-right: auto; + clear: both; +} + +table { + margin: 1em 0; + empty-cells: show; +} + +td { + vertical-align: top; + padding: 0 4px 0 1em; + text-indent: -.5em; +} + + .pagenum { + color: black; + text-align: right; + width: 4em; + position: absolute; + right: 0.5em; + padding: 0 0 0 0 ; + margin: auto 0 auto 0; + white-space:nowrap; + font-size: 12px; + font-weight: normal; + font-variant: normal; + font-style: normal; + letter-spacing: normal; + text-indent: 0; + } + +.blockquot { + margin-left: 10%; + margin-right: 10%; + font-size: 1em; + } + +.range p { + margin-left: 0; + margin-right: 0; + font-size: .95em; + line-height: 1.1em; +} + +p.plate { + margin: 0 0 1em 3em; + font-size: .95em; + line-height: 1.1em; + text-indent: 0; +} + +div.plate { + margin: 1em 0 .25em 3em; + font-size: .95em; + line-height: 1.1em; + text-indent: 0; +} + +.center {text-align: center;} + +.smcap {font-variant: small-caps;} + +.caption {font-weight: normal; + font-size: smaller; +} + +img { + border: none; padding: 0; + } + +.figcenter { + margin: auto; + text-align: center; + } + + div.index { + font-size: 90%; + } + ul.IX { + list-style-type: none; + font-size:inherit; + margin: 2em 0; + } + .IX li { + margin: 0.25em 0; + } + ul.ix { + list-style-type: none; + font-size:inherit; + margin: 1 0; + } + .ix li { + margin: 0 + } + +ul { + margin-left: .75em; + text-indent: .75em; + list-style-type: none; +} + +// --> +/* XML end ]]>*/ + </style> + </head> +<body> + + +<pre> + +The Project Gutenberg EBook of The Genus Pinus, by George Russell Shaw + +This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with +almost no restrictions whatsoever.

significance and their utility for determining the +limits of the species. A systematic arrangement follows, based on the +evolution of the cone and seed from the comparatively primitive +conditions that appear in Pinus cembra to the specialized cone and +peculiar dissemination of Pinus radiata and its associates. This +arrangement involves no radical change in existing systems. The new +associations in which some of the species appear are the natural result +of another point of view.</p> + +<p>Experience with Mexican species has led me to believe that a Pine can +adapt itself to various climatic conditions and can modify its growth in +response to them. Variations in dimensions of leaf or cone, the number +of leaves in the fascicle, the presence of pruinose branchlets, etc., +which have been thought to imply specific distinctions, are often the +evidence of facile adaptability. In fact such variations, in correlation +with climatic variation, may argue, not for specific distinction, but +for specific identity. The remarkable variation in the species may be +attributed partly to this adaptability, partly to a participation, more +or less pronounced, in the evolutionary processes that culminate in the +serotinous Pines.</p> + + + +<hr /><p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_1" id="Page_1">1</a></span></p> +<h2>PART I</h2> + +<h2>CHARACTERS OF THE GENUS</h2> + + +<h3>THE COTYLEDON. <a href="#plate1">Plate I</a>, figs. 1-3.</h3> + +<p>The upper half of the embryo in Pinus is a cylindrical fascicle of 4 to +15 cotyledons (fig. 1). The cross-section of a cotyledon is, therefore, +a triangle whose angles vary with the number composing the fascicle. +Sections from fascicles of 10 and of 5 cotyledons are shown in figs. 2 +and 3.

With the permanent appearance of the secondary leaves the green +primaries disappear and their place is taken by bud-scales, which in the +spring and summer persist as scarious bracts, each subtending a fascicle +of secondary leaves.

Buds from which normal growth develops appear only +at the nodes of the branches. On uninodal branchlets they form an apical +group consisting of a terminal bud with a whorl of subterminal buds +about its base. On multinodal branchlets the inner nodes bear lateral +buds which may be latent.</p> + +<p>Fig. 7 represents a magnified bud of P. resinosa, first immersed in +alcohol to dissolve the resin, then deprived of its scales. This bud +contains both fascicle-buds, destined for secondary leaves, and larger +paler buds at its base. These last are incipient staminate flowers, +sufficiently developed for recognition. Such flower-bearing buds are +characteristic of the Hard Pines in distinction from the Soft Pines +whose staminate flowers cannot be identified in the bud.</p> + +<p>The want of complete data leaves the invariability of this distinction +in question, but with all species that I have examined, the flowers of +Hard Pines are further advanced at the end of the summer. In the +following year they open earlier than those of Soft Pines in the same +locality. The staminate flowers of some Hard Pines (resinosa, +sylvestris, etc.,) are not apparent without removing the bud-scales, +but, with most Hard Pines, they form enlargements of the bud (fig. 9).</p> + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_2" id="Page_2">2</a></span></p> + +<p>Invisible or latent buds are present at the nodes and at the apex of +dwarf shoots. The former are the origin of the numerous shoots that +cover the trunk and branches of P. rigida, leiophylla and a few other +species (fig. 10). The latter develop into shoots in the centre of a +leaf-fascicle (fig. 11) when the branchlet, bearing the fascicle, has +been injured.</p> + +<p>The size, color and form of buds, the presence of resin in quantity, +etc., assist in the diagnosis of species. Occasionally a peculiar bud, +like that of P. palustris, may be recognized at once.</p> + + +<h3>THE BRANCHLET. <a href="#plate1">Plate I</a>, figs. 12-14.</h3> + +<p>The branchlet, as here understood, is the whole of a season's growth +from a single bud, and may consist of a single internode (uninodal, fig. +12-a) or of two or more internodes (multinodal, fig. 13), each internode +being defined by a leafless base and a terminal node of buds.</p> + +<p>The spring-shoot is uninodal in all Soft Pines and in many Hard Pines, +but, in P. taeda and its allies and in species with serotinous cones, it +is more or less prevalently multinodal.</p> + +<p>The uninodal spring-shoot may remain so throughout the growing season +and become a uninodal branchlet. Or a summer-shoot may appear on +vigorous branches of any species with the result of converting a +uninodal spring-shoot into an imperfect multinodal branchlet. The +summer-shoot may be recognized, during growth, by its green, not +scarious bracts and, at the end of the season, by the imperfect growth +of its wood and foliage (fig. 14).</p> + +<p>The perfect multinodal branchlet is formed in the winter-bud (fig. 8-a) +and the spring-shoot is multinodal. It is gradually evolved among the +Hard Pines, where it may be absent, rare, frequent or prevalent, +according to the species. In fact there is, in Pinus, an evolutionary +tendency toward multinodal growth, with its beginnings in the +summer-shoot and its culmination in the multinodal winter-bud, most +prevalent among the serotinous Pines.</p> + +<p>The multinodal shoot is never invariable in a species, but is rare, +common or prevalent. This condition prevents its employment for grouping +species. For Pines are not sharply divided into multinodal and uninodal +species, and no exact segregation of them, based on this difference, is +possible. In fact the character is unequally developed among closely +related species, such as P. palustris and caribaea. Both produce +multinodal shoots, but the former so rarely that it should be classed as +a uninodal species, while the latter is characteristically multinodal. +The multinodal spring-shoot, however, has a certain correlative value in +its relation to other evolutionary processes that are obvious in the +genus.</p> + +<p>The length of the branchlet is much influenced by different soils and +climates. In species able to adapt themselves to great changes, the +length of the internode may vary from 50 cm. or more to 1 cm. or less. +In the latter case the branch is a series of very short leafless joints +terminated by a crowded penicillate tuft of leaves (fig. 12-b). Such a +growth may be seen on any species (ponderosa, albicaulis, resinosa, +etc.) that can survive exposure and poor nourishment.</p> + +<p>The presence of wax, as a bloom on the branchlet, is associated with +trees in arid localities, especially Mexico, where it is very common. +With several species the character is inconstant, apparently dependent +on environment, and is a provision against too rapid transpiration.</p> + +<p>The branchlet furnishes evidence of the section to which the species +belongs, for the bract-bases persist after the bracts have fallen away. +The color of the branchlet, its lustre, the presence of minute hairs, +etc., are often suggestions for determining species.</p> +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_3" id="Page_3">3</a></span></p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 355px;"> + <a name="plate1" id="plate1"></a> + <a href="images/pa01.jpg" > + <img src="images/pb01.jpg" width="355" height="500" + alt="PLATE I.

They form cylindrical +fascicles, rarely monophyllous, prevalently of 2, 3 or 5 leaves, +occasionally of 4, 6, 7, or 8 leaves. The scales of the fascicle-bud +elongate into a basal sheath, dec<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_4" id="Page_4">4</a></span>iduous (fig. 15) in all Soft Pines +except P. Nelsonii, persistent (fig. 16) in all Hard Pines except P. +leiophylla and Lumholtzii. Inasmuch as these three species are easily +recognized, the fascicle-sheath is useful for sectional distinctions.</p> + + +<h4>EXTERNAL CHARACTERS.</h4> + +<p>The number of leaves in the fascicle is virtually constant in most +species, the variations being too rare to be worthy of consideration. +With some species, however, heteromerous fascicles are normal. The +influences that cause this variation are not always apparent (echinata, +etc.), but with P. ponderosa, leiophylla, sinensis and others, the +number of leaves in the fascicle is, in some degree, dependent on +climatic conditions, the smaller number occurring in colder regions. In +Mexico, for example, where snow-capped mountains lie on subtropical +table-lands and extremes of temperature are in juxtaposition, the +conditions are favorable for the production of species with heteromerous +fascicles, and the number of leaves in the fascicle possesses often +climatic rather than specific significance.</p> + +<p>Among conifers, the leaf of Pinus attains extraordinary length with +great variation, from 5 cm. or less to 50 cm. or more, the maximum for +each species being usually much more than twice the minimum. Climate is +the predominating influence; for the shortest leaves occur on alpine and +boreal species, the longest leaves on species in or near the tropics.</p> + +<p>The length of the leaf is complicated by the peculiarities of individual +trees and by pathological influences; as a general rule, however, the +length of leaves is less or greater according to unfavorable or +favorable conditions of temperature, moisture, soil and exposure. +Therefore the dimensions of the leaf may be misleading. It can be said, +however, that certain species always produce short leaves, others leaves +of medium length, and others very long leaves.</p> + +<p>Persistence of the leaf varies with the species and with the individual +tree. But it is noteworthy that the longest persistence is associated +with short leaves (Balfouriana, albicaulis, montana, etc.).</p> + + +<h4>INTERNAL CHARACTERS.</h4> + +<p>Since the leaf-fascicle is cylindrical, the cross-section of a leaf is a +sector, its proportional part, of a circle. Theoretically the leaf, in +section, should indicate the number of leaves composing its fascicle. +This is absolutely true for fascicles of two leaves only. No fascicle of +five leaves, that I have examined, is equally apportioned among its five +members. It may be divided in various ways, one of which is shown in +fig. 18, where the leaf (a) might be mistaken for one of a fascicle of +3, and the leaf (b) for one of a fascicle of 6. Therefore if absolute +certainty is required, a fascicle of triquetral leaves is best +determined by actual count.</p> + +<p>The transverse section of a leaf may be conveniently divided into three +distinct parts—1, the dermal tissues, epiderm, hypoderm and stomata +(fig. 17-a)—2, the green tissue, containing the resin-ducts (fig. +17-b)—3, the stelar tissues, enclosed by the endoderm and containing +the fibro-vascular bundle (fig. 17-c).</p> + + +<h4>THE DERMAL TISSUES OF THE LEAF.</h4> + +<p>The stomata of Pine leaves are depressed below the surface and interrupt +the continuity of epiderm and hypoderm. They are wanting on the dorsal +surface of the leaves of several Soft Pines, constantly in some species, +irregularly in others. In Hard Pines, however, all surfaces of the leaf +are stomatiferous. In several species of the Soft Pines the longitudinal +lines of stomata are very conspicuous from the white bloom which +modifies materially the general color of the foliage.</p> + +<p>Under the action of hydrochloric acid the hypoderm is sharply +differentiated from the epiderm by a distinct reddish tint, but without +the aid of a reagent the two tissues do not always differ in appearance. +The cells of epiderm and hypoderm may be so similar that they appear to +form a single tissue. In most species, however, the epiderm is distinct, +while the cells of the hypoderm are either uniform,<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_6" id="Page_6">6</a></span> with equally thin +or thick walls—or biform, with very thin walls in the outer row of +cells and very thick walls in the inner row or rows of cells—or +multiform, with cell-walls gradually thicker toward the centre of the +leaf. These conditions may be tabulated as follows—</p> + + +<div class='center'> +<table summary="Secondary Leaves"> +<tr><td align='left'>Cells of epiderm and hypoderm similar</td><td align='right'>fig. 19.</td></tr> +<tr><td align='left'>Cells of epiderm and hypoderm distinct.</td><td> </td></tr> +<tr><td align='left'><span style="margin-left: 1em;">Cells of hypoderm uniform, thin or thick</span></td><td align='right'>figs. 20, 21.</td></tr> +<tr><td align='left'><span style="margin-left: 1em;">Cells of hypoderm biform</span></td><td align='right'>fig. 22.</td></tr> +<tr><td align='left'><span style="margin-left: 1em;">Cells of hypoderm multiform</span></td><td align='right'>fig. 23.</td></tr> +</table></div> + +<p>The biform hypoderm is not always obvious (clausa, Banksiana, etc.) +where in some leaves there is but one row of cells.

But there are a few American species +with uniform hypoderm (resinosa, tropicalis, patula and Greggii); while, +in some leaves of the few American Hard Pines with multiform hypoderm, +the uniform hypoderm is a variation.</p> + + +<h4>THE GREEN TISSUE.</h4> + +<p>In this tissue are the resin-ducts, each with a border of cells, +corresponding in appearance and in chemical reaction with the cells of +the hypoderm and with thinner or thicker walls.

In the Cembrae and the +Flexiles, however, the ducts are external in some species, or medial or +both in others, without regard to the affinities of these species.</p> + +<p>Among the Hard Pines the external duct is characteristic of the Old +World, there being but two American Pines with this character (resinosa +and tropicalis). The internal duct is peculiar to Hard Pines of the New +World, its presence in Old World species being extremely rare. The +medial duct is common to species of both hemispheres, either alone or in +association with ducts in other positions (figs. 25, 27). The septal +duct is peculiar to a few species (oocarpa, tropicalis, and less +frequently Pringlei and Merkusii). I have also seen it in a leaf of P. +canariensis. The internal and septal ducts appear to be confined to the +species of warm-temperate or tropical countries.</p> + +<p>The number of resin-ducts of a single leaf may be limited to two or +three (strobus, koraiensis, etc.), but in many species it is exceedingly +variable and often large (pinaster, sylvestris, etc.). Eighteen or more +ducts in a single leaf have been recorded. Such large numbers are +peculiar to Pinus. Occasionally a single leaf, possibly the leaves of a +single tree, may be without ducts, but this is never true of all the +leaves of a species.</p> + + +<h4>THE STELAR TISSUES.</h4> + +<p>The walls of the endoderm are, in most species, uniform, but, with P. +albicaulis and some species of western North America, the outer walls of +the cells are conspicuously thickened (fig. 32). Both thin and thick +walls may be found among the leaves of the group Macrocarpae and of the +species longifolia.</p> + +<p>The fibro-vascular bundle of the leaf is single in Soft Pines, double in +Hard Pines. This distinction is employed by Koehne as the basis of his +two sections, Haploxylon and Diploxylon. The double bundle is usually +obvious even when the two parts are contiguous, but they are sometimes +com<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_7" id="Page_7">7</a></span>pletely merged into an apparently single bundle. This condition, +however, is never constant in a Hard Pine, and a little investigation +will discover a leaf with a true double bundle.</p> + +<p>Some cells about the fibro-vascular bundle acquire thick walls with the +appearance and chemical reaction of the hypoderm cells. Among the Soft +Pines this condition is most obvious in the group Cembroides. Among the +Hard Pines it appears in all degrees of development, being absent (figs. +24, 25), sometimes in irregular lines above and below the bundle (figs. +26, 27, 30, 31), or forming a conspicuous tissue between and partly +enclosing the two parts of the bundle (figs. 28, 29).</p> + +<p>The leaf-section furnishes sectional and other lesser distinctions. It +is often decisive in separating species otherwise difficult to +distinguish (nigra and resinosa or Thunbergii and sinensis, etc.). +Sometimes it is sufficiently distinct to determine a species without +recourse to other characters (tropicalis, oocarpa, Merkusii, etc.). An +intimate knowledge of the leaf-section, with an understanding of the +limits of its variation, is a valuable equipment for recognizing +species.</p> + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_5" id="Page_5"><ins title="Moved from original location.">5</ins></a></span></p> +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 382px;"> + <a name="plate2" id="plate2"></a> + <a href="images/pa02.jpg" > +<img src="images/pb02.jpg" + width="382" height="500" + alt="PLATE II.

On multinodal shoots they +are often multiserial, appearing on two or more nodes of the same +spring-shoot (fig. 33). On uninodal shoots they are necessarily +subterminal (fig. 34), the lateral pistillate flower being possible only +on multinodal shoots (fig. 35) where it is often associated with the +subterminal flower (fig. 33). Like the multinodal shoot, on which its +existence depends, the lateral pistillate flower cannot be employed for +grouping the species. It is merely the frequent, but not the essential, +evidence of condition of growth that is more perfectly characterized by +the shoot itself.</p> + +<p>Staminate catkins are in crowded clusters, capitate or elongate (figs. +36, 37), but with much variation in the number of catkins in each +cluster. In P. rigida I have found single catkins or clusters of all +numbers from two to seventy or more. In P. Massoniana and P. densiflora +a cluster attains such unusual length (fig. 37) that this character +becomes a valuable distinction between these species and P. sinensis, +which has short-capitate clusters. The catkins differ much in size, the +largest being found among the Hard Pines.</p> + +<p>In the connective of the binate pollen-sacs there is a notable +difference (figs. 38, 39), the smaller form being characteristic of the +Soft Pines. But this is not invariable (excelsa, sylvestris, etc.), and +the absence of complete data does not permit an accurate estimate of its +importance.</p> + + +<h3>THE CONELET. <a href="#plate3">Plate III</a>, figs. 40-45.</h3> + +<p>After pollination the pistillate flower closes and becomes the conelet, +the staminate flowers withering and falling away. The conelet makes no +appreciable growth until the following year. Like the pistillate flower +it may be subterminal or lateral, but a subterminal pistillate flower +may become a pseudolateral conelet by reason of a summer-growth (fig. +40-a). Such a condition may be recognized on the branchlets of the +present, and of the previous year (fig. 40-b), by the very short +internode and short leaves beyond the fruit.</p> + +<p>The conelet offers some distinctions of form, of color, and of length of +peduncle, while in some species (sylvestris, caribaea, etc.) its +reflexed position is an important specific character.

The character possesses relative value only, for great +variation is possible in the same locality and even on the same tree.</p> + + +<h4>THE PEDUNCLE.</h4> + +<p>All conelets are pedunculate, but in some species the peduncle, even +when long (patula), may become overgrown and concealed by the basal +scales of the ripe cone. Articulation usually takes place between the +peduncle and the branch, sometimes with the loss of a few basal scales +which remain temporarily on the tree (ponderosa, palustris, etc.). With +P. Nelsonii, and to a less degree with P. Armandi, there is articulation +between the cone and its peduncle.</p> + +<p>There are several species bearing persistent cones with no articulation. +This condition appears in other genera, such as Larix and Picea, but +without obvious significance. In Pinus, however, the gradual appearance +of the persistent cone, for it is rare, common, prevalent or invariable +in different species, and its essential association with the serotinous +cone, suggest an evolution toward a definite end.</p> + + +<h4>THE UMBO.</h4> + +<p>The exposed part of the scale of the conelet is the umbo of the ripe +cone, a small definite area representing the earlier part of the +biennial growth of the cone.

With the dorsal umbo all +sides of the apophysis are confined between other apophyses, and any +extension is a dorsal thickening of the apophysis or a dorsal +protuberance. The outline of an apophysis with a dorsal umbo is +quadrangular, or it is irregularly pentagonal or hexagonal, the +different forms depending on the arrangement of the contiguous scales, +whether of definite or indefinite phyllotactic order, a distinction to +be considered later.</p> + +<p>The two positions of the umbo result from the relative growth of the +dorsal and ventral surfaces of the cone-scale. With the terminal umbo +the growth of both surfaces is uniform, with the dorsal umbo the growth +is unequal. A true terminal umbo rests on the surface of the underlying +scale, although several species with terminal umbos show the first +stages of the dorsal umbo. The umbo of P. Lambertiana or of P. flexilis +does not touch the surface of the scale below, and a small portion of +the under side of the apophysis is brought into view on the closed cone. +The cone of P. albicaulis (<a href="#plate8">Plate VIII</a>, fig. 90) shows all degrees of +development between a terminal umbo near the apex of the cone and a +dorsal umbo near its base.</p> + +<p>The growth of the apophysis may be limited and constant (strobus, +echinata, etc.) or exceedingly variable, ranging from a slight thickness +to a long protuberance (pseudostrobus, montana, etc.). The protuberance +is usually reflexed from the unequal growth of the two surfaces. With +the terminal umbo the protuberance lengthens the scale, with the dorsal +umbo it thickens the scale. It is sometimes a specific character +(ayacahuite, longifolia) appearing on all cones of the species, +sometimes a varietal form, associated in the same species with an +unprolonged apophysis (sylvestris, montana).</p> + +<p>On different parts of the same cone, base, centre or apex, the +dimensions of the apophyses differ, but at each level the scales may be +uniform on all sides of the cone. That is to say, the cone is +symmetrical with reference to any plane passing through its axis. This, +the symmetrical cone, is characteristic of all other genera of the +Abietineae, and is invariable among the Soft Pines and in many Hard +Pines (figs. 47, 48, 52, 54). But among the Hard Pines there is +gradually developed a new form of cone with smaller flatter apophyses on +the anterior, and larger thicker apophyses on the posterior surface. +This is the peculiar oblique cone of Pinus (figs. 50, 51, 53), +symmetrical with reference to one plane only, which includes the axis of +both cone and branch. The oblique cone is a gradual development among +the Hard Pines; in some species it is associated as a varietal form with +the symmetrical cone, and finally, in some serotinous species, it is the +constant form.</p> + + +<h4>THE OBLIQUE CONE.</h4> + +<p>When the oblique cone is merely a varietal form (halepensis, etc.), it +gives the impression of an accident, resulting from the reflexed +position of the cone and the consequent greater development of the +scales receiving a greater amount of light and air. But with the +serotinous cones (radiata, attenuata), the advantages of this form +become apparent. The cones of these species are in crowded nodal +clusters, reflexed against the branch (fig. 50). The inner, anterior +scales are perfectly protected by their position, while the outer, +posterior scales are exposed to the weather. These last only are very +thick; that is to say, there is an economical distribution of protective +tissue, with the greatest amount where it is most needed. The oblique +form is peculiarly adapted for a cone destined to remain on the tree for +twenty years or more and to preserve its seeds unimpaired. Like the +persistent cone, the oblique cone finds in association with the +serotinous cone a definite reason for existence.</p> + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_11" id="Page_11">11</a></span></p><div class="figcenter" style="width: 361px;"> + <a name="plate4" id="plate4"></a> + <a href="images/pa04.jpg"> +<img src="images/pb04.jpg" width="361" height="500" alt="PLATE IV.

Those of the Soft Pines (figs. 55, 56) have larger and fewer +scales, those of the Hard Pines (figs. 57, 58) have more numerous and +smaller scales, in proportion to the size of the cone. The former +condition represents a lower, the latter condition represents a higher, +order of phyllotaxis.</p> + + +<h4>DEFINITE PHYLLOTAXIS.</h4> + +<p>On a cylindrical axis with scales of the same size, the spiral +arrangement would appear as in fig. 62, where the scales are +quadrangular and any four adjacent scales are in mutual contact at their +sides or angles. These four scales lie on four obvious secondary spirals +(fig. 59, a-a, b-b, c-c, d-d). According to the phyllotactic order of +the scales these may be the spirals of 2, 3, 5, 8 or of 3, 5, 8, 13 or +of 5, 8, 13, 21 etc., etc., from which combinations the primary spiral, +on which the scales are inserted on the cone-axis, can be easily +deduced. Four quadrangular scales in mutual contact represent the +condition of definite phyllotaxis. If the cone is conical, definite +phyllotaxis would be possible among all the scales only when the size of +the scales diminishes in equal measure with the gradual diminution of +the cone's diameter. Such a hypothetical cone is shown in fig. 61.</p> + + +<h4>INDEFINITE PHYLLOTAXIS.</h4> + +<p>On an imaginary cone of conical form and with scales of equal size +throughout, there must be more scales about the base than about the apex +of the cone. The phyllotactic conditions must differ, and the obvious +spirals, in passing from base to apex, must undergo readjustment. If the +scales at the base are in definite phyllotactic order and those at the +apex are in the next lower order, it is evident that intermediate +scales, in the gradual change from one condition to the other, must +represent different conditions of indefinite phyllotaxis, while those in +a central position on the cone may belong equally to either of two +orders.</p> + +<p>A Pine cone is never absolutely cylindrical nor do its scales vary in +size proportionately to the change of diameter. Most of the scales of a +cone are in indefinite phyllotactic relation, while definite phyllotaxis +is found only at points on the cone.</p> + +<p>As an extreme illustration, the cone of P. pinaster (fig. 60) shows four +mutually contiguous quadrangular apophyses at (a), lying on the obvious +spirals 5, 8, 13, 21, at (b) four similar apophyses on the spirals 3, 5, +8, 13, and at (c) four others on the spirals 2, 3, 5, 8. Between these +three points are apophyses of irregular pentagonal or hexagonal outline, +with three scales only in mutual contact (figs. 63, 64). Such are the +majority of the scales of the cone and represent more or less indefinite +conditions of phyllotaxis.</p> + +<p>The cones of Hard Pines, by reason of relatively more and smaller scales +and of a more conical form, attain a higher phyllotaxis and a more +complex condition, two or even three orders being represented on a +single cone; while the cones of Soft Pines, by reason of relatively +fewer and larger scales and a more cylindrical form, are of lower +phyllotaxis, with one order only more or less definitely presented. +Therefore phyllotaxis furnishes another distinction between the two +sections of the genus, but its further employment is exceedingly +restricted on account of the constant repetition of the same orders +among the species.</p> + + +<h3>THE CONE-TISSUES. <a href="#plate6">Plate VI</a>.</h3> + +<p>The axis of the cone is a woody shell, enclosing a wide pith and covered +by a thick cortex traversed by resin-ducts. By removing the scales and +cortex from the axis (fig. 65) the wood is seen to be in sinuous strands +uniting above and below fusiform openings, the points of insertion of +the cone-scales. From the wood, at each insertion, three stout strands +enter the scale, dividing and subdividing<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_14" id="Page_14">14</a></span> into smaller tapering +strands whose delicate tips converge toward the umbo. Fig. 70 represents +a magnified cross-section of half the cone-scale of P. Greggii; at (a) +is a compact dorsal plate of bast cells; at (e) is a ventral plate of +the same tissue but of less amount; at (b) is the softer brown tissue +enclosing the wood-strands (d, d) (the last much more magnified in fig. +69) and the resin-ducts (e, e).</p> + + +<h4>WOOD STRANDS.</h4> + +<p>The wood-strands, forming the axis of the cone, differ in tenacity in +the two sections of the genus. Those of the Soft Pines are easily pulled +apart by the fingers, those of the Hard Pines are tougher in various +degrees and cannot be torn apart without the aid of a tool. This +difference is correlated with differences in other tissues, all of them +combining in a gradual change from a cone of soft yielding texture to +one of great hardness and durability.</p> + +<p>If a cone scale of P. ayacahuite is stripped of its brown and bast +tissues (fig. 66) and is immersed in water and subsequently dried, there +is at first a flexion toward the cone-axis (fig. 67) and then away from +it (fig. 68). The wood-strands are hygroscopic and coöperate with the +bast tissues in opening and closing the cone. This appears to be true of +all species excepting the three species of the Cembrae, whose strands +are so small and weak that they are not obviously affected by +hygrometric changes.</p> + + +<h4>BAST TISSUE.</h4> + +<p>With the exception of the three species of the Cembrae the inner part of +the cone-scales is protected by sclerenchymatous cells forming hard +dorsal and ventral plates (fig. 70, a, c). In Soft Pines these cells are +subordinate to the more numerous parenchymatous cells, but in Hard Pines +the sclerenchyma increases in amount until, among the serotinous +species, it is the predominating tissue of the cone-scale, giving to +these cones their remarkable strength and durability.</p> + +<p>This bast tissue is hygroscopic and, with its greater thickness on the +dorsal surface, there is a much greater strain on that side of the +scale, tending to force the scales apart when they are ripe and dry, and +subsequently closing and opening the cone on rainy and sunny days.</p> + +<p>The cone, during the second season's growth, is completely closed, its +scales adhering together with more or less tenacity. In most species the +hygroscopic energy of the scales is sufficient to open the cone under +the dry condition of its maturity, but with several species the adhesion +is so persistent that some of the cones remain closed for many years. +These are the peculiar serotinous cones of the genus.</p> + + +<h4>THE SEROTINOUS CONE.</h4> + +<p>As an illustration of the area to which the adhesion is confined, a +section may be sawed from a cone of P. attenuata (fig. 71). The axis and +the scales that have been severed from their apophyses (b) can be easily +pushed out of the annulus (a), which is composed wholly of apophyses so +firmly adherent that they will successfully resist a strong effort to +break them apart. When immersed in boiling water, however, the ring +falls to pieces. An examination of these pieces discovers adhesion only +on a narrow ventral border under the apophysis and on a corresponding +dorsal border back of the apophysis. The rest of the scale is not +adherent, so that the seed is free to fall at the opening of the cone.</p> + +<p>The serotinous cone is a gradual development, wanting in most species, +rare in a few, less or more frequent in others. A similar evolution of +the persistent cone, of the oblique cone and of the cone-tissues has +been already discussed. All these progressive characters culminate in +mutual association in P. radiata and its allies. The result is a highly +specialized fruit that should convey taxonomic significance of some +kind.</p> + +<p>With all serotinous species that I have seen, some of the trees open +their cones at maturity, others at indefinite intervals. That is to say, +the seed of a prolific year is not at the mercy of a single, <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_16" id="Page_16">16</a></span>perhaps +unfavorable season. The chances of successful germination are much +increased by the intermittent seed-release peculiar to these Pines. Such +a method of dissemination must accrue to the advantage of a species. In +other words, this intermittent dissemination and the oblique form of +cone with its perfected tissues all mark the highest development of the +genus.</p> + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_13" id="Page_13"><ins title="Moved from original location.">13</ins></a></span></p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 353px;"> + <a name="plate5" id="plate5"></a> + <a href="images/pa05.jpg"> +<img src="images/pb05.jpg" width="353" height="500" alt="PLATE V.

Figs. 72-79.</h3> + +<p>The seed of Pinus contains an embryo, with the cotyledons clearly +defined, embedded in albumen, which is protected by a bony testa with an +external membranous spermoderm, produced, in most species, into an +effective wing. While the seed of other genera of the Abietineae shows +no striking difference among the species, that of Pinus is remarkably +variable, presenting alike the most primitive and the most elaborate +forms among the Conifers. These differences are valuable for the +segregation of kindred species and for some specific distinctions.</p> + + +<h4>WINGLESS SEEDS.</h4> + +<p>With wingless seeds the main distinction is found in the spermoderm, +which is entire in one species only, P. koraiensis. In P. cembra it is +wanting on the ventral surface of the nut, but on the dorsal surface, it +is adnate partly to the nut, partly to the cone-scale. The nut of P. +albicaulis and that of P. cembroides are quite bare of membranous cover. +The spermoderm of P. flexilis is reduced to a marginal border, slightly +produced into a rudimentary wing adnate to the nut.</p> + + +<h4>THE ADNATE WING.</h4> + +<p>In P. strobus, longifolia and their allies and in P. Balfouriana the +spermoderm is prolonged into an effective wing-blade from a marginal +adnate base like that of P. flexilis. This adnate wing cannot be +detached without injury.</p> + + +<h4>THE ARTICULATE WING.</h4> + +<p>The articulate wing can be removed from the nut and can be replaced +without injury. An ineffective form of this wing is seen in the +Gerardianae and in P. pinea, where the blade is very short and the base +has no effective grasp on the nut.</p> + +<p>The base of the effective articulate wing contains hygroscopic tissue +which acts with the hygroscopic tissue of the cone-scales. The dry +conditions that open the cone and release the seeds cause the bifurcate +base of the wing to grasp the nut more firmly.</p> + +<p>This articulate wing is found in P. aristata and in all Hard Pines +except P. pinea, longifolia and canariensis. The wing-blade is usually +membranous throughout, but in some species there is a thickening of the +base of the blade that meets the membranous apical part in an oblique +line along which the wing is easily broken apart. This last condition +attains in P. Coulteri and its associates a remarkable development.</p> + +<p><a href="#plate6">Plate VI</a>, fig. 72 shows the wingless seed of P. cembroides; fig. 73 +represents the seed of P. flexilis, with a rudimentary wing; fig. 74 +shows two seeds of P. strobus, intact and with the wing broken away; +fig. 75 represents the articulate wing, whose bifurcate base when wet +(fig. 76) tends to open and release the nut. When dry (fig. 77) the +forks of the base, in the absence of the nut, close together and cross +their tips; figs. 78, 79 show the peculiar reinforced articulate wing of +P. Coulteri.</p> + +<p>Such wide variation in so important an organ suggests generic +difference. But here we are met by the association of the different +forms in species evidently closely allied. The two Foxtail Pines are so +similar in most characters that they have been considered, with good +reason, to be specifically identical; yet the seed-wing of P. +Balfouriana is adnate, that of P. aristata articulate. P. Ayacahuite +produces not only the characteristic wing of the Strobi, adnate, long +and effective, but also, in the northern variety, a seed with a +rudimentary wing, the exact counterpart of the seed of P. flexilis.<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_17" id="Page_17">17</a></span> In +both sections of the genus are found the effective adnate wing (Strobi +and Longifoliae) and the inefficient articulate wing (Gerardianae and +Pineae). A little examination of all forms of the seed will show that +they blend gradually one into another.</p> + +<p>The color of the wing is occasionally peculiar, as in the group +Longifoliae. There is usually no constancy in this character, for the +wing may be uniform in color or variously striated in seeds of the same +species. The length and breadth of the seed-wing, being dependent on the +varying sizes of the cone-scale, differ in the same cone. They are also +inconstant in different cones of the same species, and of this +inconstancy the seed of P. ayacahuite furnishes the most notable +example.</p> + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_15" id="Page_15"><ins title="Moved from original location.">15</ins></a></span></p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 356px;"> + <a name="plate6" id="plate6"></a> + <a href="images/pa06.jpg"> +<img src="images/pb06.jpg" width="356" height="500" alt="PLATE VI.

P. pinea of the Hard Pines resembles, in its +wood-characters, P. Gerardiana and P. Bungeana of the Soft Pines. The +dentate ray-tracheids of P. longifolia are not always obvious. The +tracheids of P. luchuensis, according to Bergerstein (Wiesner Festschr. +112), have smooth walls. My specimen shows dentate tracheids. There is +also evidence of transition from small to large pits (I. W. Bailey in +Am. Nat. xliv. 292). Both large and small pits appear in my specimen of +P. Merkusii.</p> + +<p>Of other wood-characters, the presence or absence of tangential pits in +the tracheids of the late wood establishes a distinction between Soft +and Hard Pines. These pits, however, while always present in Soft Pines, +are not always absent in Hard Pines. The single and multiple rows of +resin-ducts in the wood of the first year may prove to be a reliable +sectional distinction, but this character has not been sufficiently +investigated to test its constancy. The wood-characters, therefore, +however decisive they may be for establishing the phylogenetic relations +of different genera, must be employed in the classification of the Pines +with the same reservations that apply to external characters.</p> + +<p>Ray-tracheids with dentate walls and ray-cells with large pits are +peculiar to Pinus. Therefore the presence of these characters, alone or +in combination, is sufficient evidence for the recognition of Pine-wood. +But the combination of smooth tracheids with small pits (subsection +Paracembra) Pinus shares with Picea, Larix and Pseudotsuga.</p> + +<p>Among Hard Pines the size of the pits has a certain geographical +significance. The large pits are found in all species of the Old World +except P. halepensis and P. pinaster; the small pits in all species of +the New World except P. resinosa and P. tropicalis. The Asiatic P. +Merkusii with both large and small pits is not strictly an exception to +this geographical distinction. The four exceptional species by this and +by other characters unite the Hard Pines of the two hemispheres.</p> + + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_18" id="Page_18">18</a></span></p> + +<h3>THE BARK.</h3> + +<p>Bark is the outer part of the cortex that has perished, having been cut +off from nourishment by the thin hard plates of the bark-scales. In the +late and early bark-formation is found a general but by no means an +exact distinction between Soft and Hard Pines. In the Soft Pines the +cortex remains alive for many years, adjusting itself by growth to the +increasing thickness of the wood. The trunks of young trees remain +smooth and without rifts. In the Hard Pines the bark-formation begins +early and the trunks of young trees are covered with a scaly or rifted +bark. The smooth upper trunk of older trees is invariable in Soft Pines, +but in Hard Pines there are several exceptions to early bark-formation. +These exceptions are easily recognized in the field, and the character +is of decisive specific importance (glabra, halepensis, etc.).</p> + +<p>Among species with early bark-formation are two forms of bark: 1, +cumulative, sufficiently persistent to acquire thickness and the +familiar dark gray and fuscous-brown shades of bark long exposed to the +weather; 2, deciduous, constantly falling away in thin scales and +exposing fresh red inner surfaces. The latter are commonly known as Red +Pines, as distinguished from Black Pines with dark cumulative bark. +Deciduous bark changes after some years to cumulative bark, and the +upper trunk only of mature trees is red. Red Pines, although usually +recognizable by their bark, are by no means constant in this character. +Oecological or pathological influences may check the fall of the +bark-scales, and then the distinction between the upper and lower parts +of the trunk becomes lost.</p> + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_19" id="Page_19"><ins title="Moved from original location.">19</ins></a></span></p> + +<div class="figcenter" style="width: 367px;"> + <a name="plate7" id="plate7"></a> + <a href="images/pa07.jpg"> +<img src="images/pb07.jpg" width="367" height="500" alt="PLATE VII.

Characters considered by earlier authors to be invariable with +species, such as the dimensions of leaf or cone, the number of leaves in +the fascicle, the position of the resin-ducts, the presence of pruinose +branchlets, etc., prove to be inconstant in some species. In fact, as +the botanical horizon enlarges, the varietal limits of the species +broaden and many restrictions imposed by earlier systems are gradually +disappearing.</p> + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_21" id="Page_21">21</a></span></p><p>Variation is the preliminary step toward the creation of species, which +come into being with the elimination of intermediate forms. Variation in +a species may be the result of its participation in the evolutionary +processes culminating in the serotinous Pines, or it may result from the +ability of the species to adapt itself to various environments by +sympathetic modifications of growth, or it may arise from some +peculiarity of the individual tree.</p> + +<p>Evolutionary variation is associated with the gradual appearance of the +persistent, the oblique and the serotinous cone, and of the multinodal +spring-shoot. For these conditions appear in less or greater prevalence +among the species of the genus.</p> + +<p>Variation induced by environment finds familiar illustrations among the +species that can survive at the limits of vegetation and can meet these +inhospitable conditions by a radical change of all growing parts. Such +variations are mainly of dimensions, but, with some species, the number +of fascicle-leaves is affected and the shorter growing-season may modify +the cone-tissues. In Mexico and Central America are found extremes of +climate within small areas and easily within the range of dissemination +from a single tree. The cause of the bewildering host of varietal forms, +connecting widely contrasted extremes, seems to lie in the facile +adaptability of those Pines, which are able to spread from the tropical +base of a mountain to a less or greater distance toward its snow-capped +summit.</p> + +<p>The peculiarities of individual trees that induce abnormally short or +long growths, the dwarf or other monstrous forms, the variegations in +leaf-coloring, etc., etc., are not available for classification, for +they may appear in any species, in fact in any genus of Conifers. These +variations are artificially multiplied for commercial and decorative +purposes. But inasmuch as they are repeated in all species and genera of +the Coniferae that have been long under the observation of skillful +gardeners, their significance has a broader scope than that imposed by +the study of a single genus.</p> + + +<div class="part_2"> +<hr /><p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_22" id="Page_22">22</a></span></p> +<h2>PART II</h2> + +<h2>CLASSIFICATION OF THE SPECIES</h2> + + +<p>The following classification is based on the gradual evolution of the +fruit from a cone symmetrical in form, parenchymatous in tissue, +indehiscent and deciduous at maturity, releasing its wingless seed by +disintegration—to a cone oblique in form, very strong and durable in +tissue, persistent on the tree, intermittently dehiscent, releasing its +winged seeds partly at maturity, partly at indefinite intervals during +several years. This evolution embraces two extreme forms of fruit, one +the most primitive, the other the most elaborate, among Conifers.</p> + +<p>Two sections of the genus, Soft and Hard Pines, are distinguished by +several correlated characters, and moreover are distinct by obvious +differences in the tissues of their cones as well as in the quality and +appearance of their wood.</p> + +<p>With the Soft Pines the species group naturally under two subsections on +the position of the umbo, the anatomy of the wood and the armature of +the conelet. In one subsection (Cembra) are found three species, P. +cembra and its allies, with the cone-tissues so completely +parenchymatous that the cones cannot release the seeds except by +disintegration. In both subsections there is a gradual evolution from a +wingless nut to one with an effective wing, adnate in one subsection, +adnate and articulate in the other. The different stages of this +evolution are so distinct that the Soft Pines are easily separated into +definite groups.</p> + +<p>Among the Hard Pines a few species show characters that are peculiar to +the Soft Pines. These exceptional species form a subsection +(Parapinaster) by themselves.</p> + +<p>With the remaining species, the majority of the Pines, the distinctions +that obtain among Soft Pines have disappeared. The dorsal umbo, the +articulate seed-wing, the persistent fascicle-sheath, the dorsal and +ventral stomata of the leaf and its serrate margins, the dentate walls +of the ray-tracheids have become fixed and constant. But a new form of +seed-wing appears, with a thickened blade, assuming such proportions in +P. Sabiniana and its two allies that these three constitute a distinct +group, remarkable also for the size of its cones.</p> + +<p>Here also appear a new form of fruit, the oblique cone, and a new method +of dissemination, the serotinous cone. Associated with the latter are +the persistent cone and the multinodal spring-shoot. These characters do +not develop in such perfect sequence and regularity that they can be +employed for grouping the species without forcing some of them into +unnatural association. The oblique cone first appears sporadically here +and there and without obvious reason. The persistent cone, the first +stage of the serotinous cone, is equally sporadic in the earlier stages +of evolution. The same may be said of the multinodal shoot.</p> + +<p>Nevertheless these characters show an obvious progression toward a +definite goal, where they are all united in a small group of species +remarkable for the form and texture of their cones, for a peculiar +seed-release and for the vigor and rapidity of their growth. It is +possible, with the assistance of other characters, to segregate these +species in three groups in which the affinities are respected and the +general trend of their evolution is preserved.</p> + +<p>The first group, the Lariciones, contains species with large ray-pits, +cones dehiscent at maturity, and uninodal spring-shoots. They are, with +two exceptions, P. resinosa and P. tropicalis, Old World species.</p> + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_23" id="Page_23">23</a></span></p><p>The second group, the Australes, contains species with small ray-pits, +cones dehiscent at maturity and spring-shoots gradually changing, among +the species, from a uninodal to a multinodal form. They are, without +exception, species of the New World.</p> + +<p>The third group, the Insignes, contains the serotinous species. The +ray-pits are small and the spring-shoots are, with two exceptions, +multinodal. With two exceptions, P. halepensis and P. pinaster, they are +New World species.</p> + +<p>These three groups, being the progressive sequence of a lineal +evolution, are not absolutely circumscribed, but are more or less +connected through a few intermediate species of each group. The +systematic position of these intermediate species is determined by their +obvious affinities. It cannot be expected that the variations, which +take an important part in the evolution of the species, progress with +equal step or in perfect correlation with each other.</p> + +<p>As to specific determinations, a little experience in the field +discloses an amount of variation in species that does not always appear +in the descriptions of authors; and species that are under the closest +scrutiny of botanists, foresters or horticulturalists, attest by their +multiple synonymy their wide variation. The possibilities of variation +are indefinite and, with adaptable Pines, the range of variation is +somewhat proportionate to change of climate. In mountainous countries, +where there are warm sheltered valleys with rich soil below cold barren +ledges, the most variable Pines are found. The western species of North +America, for instance, are much more variable than the eastern species, +while in Mexico, a tropical country with snow-capped mountains, the +variation is greatest.</p> + +<p>Therefore in the limitation of species undue importance should not be +given to characters responsive to environment, such as the dimensions of +leaf or cone, the number of leaves in the fascicle, etc. Moreover, there +are familiar examples (P. sylvestris, etc.) that show the possibility of +wide differences in the cone of the same species.</p> + +<p>In the following classification species only are considered without +attempting to determine varietal or other subspecific forms. But +varieties are often mentioned as one of the factors illustrating the +scope of species. Synonymy serves a like purpose, but synonyms not +conveying useful information are omitted, Roezl's list of Mexican +species, for instance, and variations in the orthography of specific +names.</p> + + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_24" id="Page_24">24</a></span></p> + +<h3>PINUS</h3> + +<ul> +<li>1755 <span class="smcap">Pinus</span> Duhamel, Traité des Arbres, ii. 121.</li> +<li>1790 <span class="smcap">Apinus</span> Necker, Elem.

In this group are +placed P. Torreyana and P. leiophylla. Another group, with trimerous +fascicles, contains P. Sabiniana and P. taeda. Now there are no two +species more obviously related by important peculiarities than P. +Torreyana and P. Sabiniana; nevertheless they are, by this method, +kept apart and associated with species which they resemble in no +important particular.</p> + +<p>An attempt is made here to avoid such incongruities. Groups X, XI and +XII represent different stages of evolution. In the Lariciones the +cone is symmetrical, and dehiscent and deciduous at maturity, while +the spring-shoot is uninodal. In the Australes there is a similar +cone, but the spring-shoot gradually becomes multinodal. In the +Insignes the cone is oblique, persistent and serotinous, and the +spring-shoot is multinodal.</p> + +<p>These definitions state the degree of evolution attained by each +group, but not all the species of a group conform exactly with its +definition. In each group are species with a characteristic of another +group. Among the Lariciones are a few species with both symmetrical +and oblique cones, and two with persistent cones. Similar exceptions +occur among the Australes. Among the Insignes are a few species with +symmetrical cones, and two with cones that are rarely, if ever, +serotinous.</p> + +<p>There is, however, no difficulty in fixing the systematic position of +these exceptional species through other characters which show their +true affinity. They are placed with the species which they most +resemble. Their exceptional characters are merely the evidence of the +evolution that pervades and unites the groups. Therefore the +definition of a group is not necessarily the exact definition of its +species, and a species is placed in a group because all its +characters, specific and evolutional, show a closer affinity with that +group than with the species of any other. </p></div> + + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_51" id="Page_51">51</a></span></p> + +<h5>X.

It may be added +that the anatomy of the leaf is also constant, while the dimensions of +both leaf and cone present no unusual variations. The varieties +generally accepted are founded on the habit of the tree, a character +of forestal or horticultural rather than of botanical importance.</p> + +<div class="plate"><a href="#plate22">Plate XXII</a>.</div> + +<p class="plate">Fig. 193, Two cones.

Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm + +Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of +electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers +including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists +because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from +people in all walks of life. + +Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the +assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's +goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will +remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive +Foundation + +The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit +501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the +state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal +Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification +number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at +https://pglaf.org/fundraising.

Newby + Chief Executive and Director + gbnewby@pglaf.org + + +Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> diff --git a/26798-h/images/logo.png b/26798-h/images/logo.png Binary files differnew file mode 100644

A systematic arrangement follows, based on the +evolution of the cone and seed from the comparatively primitive +conditions that appear in Pinus cembra to the specialized cone and +peculiar dissemination of Pinus radiata and its associates. This +arrangement involves no radical change in existing systems. The new +associations in which some of the species appear are the natural result +of another point of view. + +Experience with Mexican species has led me to believe that a Pine can +adapt itself to various climatic conditions and can modify its growth in +response to them. Variations in dimensions of leaf or cone, the number +of leaves in the fascicle, the presence of pruinose branchlets, etc., +which have been thought to imply specific distinctions, are often the +evidence of facile adaptability. In fact such variations, in correlation +with climatic variation, may argue, not for specific distinction, but +for specific identity. The remarkable variation in the species may be +attributed partly to this adaptability, partly to a participation, more +or less pronounced, in the evolutionary processes that culminate in the +serotinous Pines. + + + + +PART I + +CHARACTERS OF THE GENUS + + +THE COTYLEDON. Plate I, figs. 1-3. + +The upper half of the embryo in Pinus is a cylindrical fascicle of 4 to +15 cotyledons (fig. 1). The cross-section of a cotyledon is, therefore, +a triangle whose angles vary with the number composing the fascicle. +Sections from fascicles of 10 and of 5 cotyledons are shown in figs. 2 +and 3. Apart from this difference cotyledons are much alike. Their +number varies and is indeterminate for all species, while any given +number is common to so many species that the character is of no value. + + +THE PRIMARY LEAF. Plate I, figs. 4-6. + +Primary leaves follow the cotyledons immediately (fig. 4) and assume the +usual functions of foliage for a limited period, varying from one to +three years, secondary fascicles appearing here and there in their +axils. With the permanent appearance of the secondary leaves the green +primaries disappear and their place is taken by bud-scales, which in the +spring and summer persist as scarious bracts, each subtending a fascicle +of secondary leaves. At this stage the bracts present two important +distinctions. + + 1. The bract-base is non-decurrent, like the leaf-base + of Abies fig. 5. + 2. The bract-base is decurrent, like the leaf-base of Picea fig. 6. + +The two sections of the genus, Haploxylon and Diploxylon, established by +Koehne on the single and double fibro-vascular bundle of the leaf, are +even more accurately characterized by these two forms of +bract-insertion. The difference between them, however, is most obvious +on long branchlets with wide intervals between the leaf-fascicles. + +The bracts of spring-shoots are the scarious bud-scales of the previous +winter; but the bracts of summer-shoots have the form and green color of +the primary leaf. + + +THE BUD. Plate I, figs. 7-11. + +The winter-bud is an aggregate of minute buds, each concealed in the +axil of a primary leaf converted into a scarious, more or less +fimbriate, bud-scale. Buds from which normal growth develops appear only +at the nodes of the branches. On uninodal branchlets they form an apical +group consisting of a terminal bud with a whorl of subterminal buds +about its base. On multinodal branchlets the inner nodes bear lateral +buds which may be latent. + +Fig. 7 represents a magnified bud of P. resinosa, first immersed in +alcohol to dissolve the resin, then deprived of its scales. This bud +contains both fascicle-buds, destined for secondary leaves, and larger +paler buds at its base. These last are incipient staminate flowers, +sufficiently developed for recognition. Such flower-bearing buds are +characteristic of the Hard Pines in distinction from the Soft Pines +whose staminate flowers cannot be identified in the bud. + +The want of complete data leaves the invariability of this distinction +in question, but with all species that I have examined, the flowers of +Hard Pines are further advanced at the end of the summer. In the +following year they open earlier than those of Soft Pines in the same +locality. The staminate flowers of some Hard Pines (resinosa, +sylvestris, etc.,) are not apparent without removing the bud-scales, +but, with most Hard Pines, they form enlargements of the bud (fig. 9). + +Invisible or latent buds are present at the nodes and at the apex of +dwarf shoots. The former are the origin of the numerous shoots that +cover the trunk and branches of P. rigida, leiophylla and a few other +species (fig. 10). The latter develop into shoots in the centre of a +leaf-fascicle (fig. 11) when the branchlet, bearing the fascicle, has +been injured. + +The size, color and form of buds, the presence of resin in quantity, +etc., assist in the diagnosis of species. Occasionally a peculiar bud, +like that of P. palustris, may be recognized at once. + + +THE BRANCHLET. Plate I, figs. 12-14. + +The branchlet, as here understood, is the whole of a season's growth +from a single bud, and may consist of a single internode (uninodal, fig. +12-a) or of two or more internodes (multinodal, fig. 13), each internode +being defined by a leafless base and a terminal node of buds. + +The spring-shoot is uninodal in all Soft Pines and in many Hard Pines, +but, in P. taeda and its allies and in species with serotinous cones, it +is more or less prevalently multinodal. + +The uninodal spring-shoot may remain so throughout the growing season +and become a uninodal branchlet. Or a summer-shoot may appear on +vigorous branches of any species with the result of converting a +uninodal spring-shoot into an imperfect multinodal branchlet. The +summer-shoot may be recognized, during growth, by its green, not +scarious bracts and, at the end of the season, by the imperfect growth +of its wood and foliage (fig. 14). + +The perfect multinodal branchlet is formed in the winter-bud (fig. 8-a) +and the spring-shoot is multinodal. It is gradually evolved among the +Hard Pines, where it may be absent, rare, frequent or prevalent, +according to the species. In fact there is, in Pinus, an evolutionary +tendency toward multinodal growth, with its beginnings in the +summer-shoot and its culmination in the multinodal winter-bud, most +prevalent among the serotinous Pines. + +The multinodal shoot is never invariable in a species, but is rare, +common or prevalent. This condition prevents its employment for grouping +species. For Pines are not sharply divided into multinodal and uninodal +species, and no exact segregation of them, based on this difference, is +possible. In fact the character is unequally developed among closely +related species, such as P. palustris and caribaea. Both produce +multinodal shoots, but the former so rarely that it should be classed as +a uninodal species, while the latter is characteristically multinodal. +The multinodal spring-shoot, however, has a certain correlative value in +its relation to other evolutionary processes that are obvious in the +genus. + +The length of the branchlet is much influenced by different soils and +climates. In species able to adapt themselves to great changes, the +length of the internode may vary from 50 cm. or more to 1 cm. or less. +In the latter case the branch is a series of very short leafless joints +terminated by a crowded penicillate tuft of leaves (fig. 12-b). Such a +growth may be seen on any species (ponderosa, albicaulis, resinosa, +etc.) that can survive exposure and poor nourishment. + +The presence of wax, as a bloom on the branchlet, is associated with +trees in arid localities, especially Mexico, where it is very common. +With several species the character is inconstant, apparently dependent +on environment, and is a provision against too rapid transpiration. + +The branchlet furnishes evidence of the section to which the species +belongs, for the bract-bases persist after the bracts have fallen away. +The color of the branchlet, its lustre, the presence of minute hairs, +etc., are often suggestions for determining species. + +[Illustration: PLATE I. PRIMARY LEAF, BUD AND BRANCHLET] + + +THE SECONDARY LEAF. Plate II. + +Secondary leaves, the permanent foliage of Pines, are borne on +dwarf-shoots in the axils of primary leaves. They form cylindrical +fascicles, rarely monophyllous, prevalently of 2, 3 or 5 leaves, +occasionally of 4, 6, 7, or 8 leaves. The scales of the fascicle-bud +elongate into a basal sheath, deciduous (fig. 15) in all Soft Pines +except P. Nelsonii, persistent (fig. 16) in all Hard Pines except P. +leiophylla and Lumholtzii. Inasmuch as these three species are easily +recognized, the fascicle-sheath is useful for sectional distinctions. + + +EXTERNAL CHARACTERS. + +The number of leaves in the fascicle is virtually constant in most +species, the variations being too rare to be worthy of consideration. +With some species, however, heteromerous fascicles are normal. The +influences that cause this variation are not always apparent (echinata, +etc.), but with P. ponderosa, leiophylla, sinensis and others, the +number of leaves in the fascicle is, in some degree, dependent on +climatic conditions, the smaller number occurring in colder regions. In +Mexico, for example, where snow-capped mountains lie on subtropical +table-lands and extremes of temperature are in juxtaposition, the +conditions are favorable for the production of species with heteromerous +fascicles, and the number of leaves in the fascicle possesses often +climatic rather than specific significance. + +Among conifers, the leaf of Pinus attains extraordinary length with +great variation, from 5 cm. or less to 50 cm. or more, the maximum for +each species being usually much more than twice the minimum. Climate is +the predominating influence; for the shortest leaves occur on alpine and +boreal species, the longest leaves on species in or near the tropics. + +The length of the leaf is complicated by the peculiarities of individual +trees and by pathological influences; as a general rule, however, the +length of leaves is less or greater according to unfavorable or +favorable conditions of temperature, moisture, soil and exposure. +Therefore the dimensions of the leaf may be misleading. It can be said, +however, that certain species always produce short leaves, others leaves +of medium length, and others very long leaves. + +Persistence of the leaf varies with the species and with the individual +tree. But it is noteworthy that the longest persistence is associated +with short leaves (Balfouriana, albicaulis, montana, etc.). + + +INTERNAL CHARACTERS. + +Since the leaf-fascicle is cylindrical, the cross-section of a leaf is a +sector, its proportional part, of a circle. Theoretically the leaf, in +section, should indicate the number of leaves composing its fascicle. +This is absolutely true for fascicles of two leaves only. No fascicle of +five leaves, that I have examined, is equally apportioned among its five +members. It may be divided in various ways, one of which is shown in +fig. 18, where the leaf (a) might be mistaken for one of a fascicle of +3, and the leaf (b) for one of a fascicle of 6. Therefore if absolute +certainty is required, a fascicle of triquetral leaves is best +determined by actual count. + +The transverse section of a leaf may be conveniently divided into three +distinct parts--1, the dermal tissues, epiderm, hypoderm and stomata +(fig. 17-a)--2, the green tissue, containing the resin-ducts (fig. +17-b)--3, the stelar tissues, enclosed by the endoderm and containing +the fibro-vascular bundle (fig. 17-c). + + +THE DERMAL TISSUES OF THE LEAF. + +The stomata of Pine leaves are depressed below the surface and interrupt +the continuity of epiderm and hypoderm. They are wanting on the dorsal +surface of the leaves of several Soft Pines, constantly in some species, +irregularly in others. In Hard Pines, however, all surfaces of the leaf +are stomatiferous. In several species of the Soft Pines the longitudinal +lines of stomata are very conspicuous from the white bloom which +modifies materially the general color of the foliage. + +Under the action of hydrochloric acid the hypoderm is sharply +differentiated from the epiderm by a distinct reddish tint, but without +the aid of a reagent the two tissues do not always differ in appearance. +The cells of epiderm and hypoderm may be so similar that they appear to +form a single tissue. In most species, however, the epiderm is distinct, +while the cells of the hypoderm are either uniform, with equally thin +or thick walls--or biform, with very thin walls in the outer row of +cells and very thick walls in the inner row or rows of cells--or +multiform, with cell-walls gradually thicker toward the centre of the +leaf. These conditions may be tabulated as follows-- + + Cells of epiderm and hypoderm similar fig. 19. + Cells of epiderm and hypoderm distinct. + Cells of hypoderm uniform, thin or thick figs. 20, 21. + Cells of hypoderm biform fig. 22. + Cells of hypoderm multiform fig. 23. + +The biform hypoderm is not always obvious (clausa, Banksiana, etc.) +where in some leaves there is but one row of cells. But with the +examination of other leaves one or more cells of a second row will be +found with very thick walls. Among Hard Pines there is no Old World +species with a biform hypoderm. But there are a few American species +with uniform hypoderm (resinosa, tropicalis, patula and Greggii); while, +in some leaves of the few American Hard Pines with multiform hypoderm, +the uniform hypoderm is a variation. + + +THE GREEN TISSUE. + +In this tissue are the resin-ducts, each with a border of cells, +corresponding in appearance and in chemical reaction with the cells of +the hypoderm and with thinner or thicker walls. With reference to the +green tissue the foliar duct may be in one of four positions. + + 1. External against the hypoderm fig. 24. + 2. Internal against the endoderm fig. 28. + 3. Medial in the green tissue, touching neither + hypoderm nor endoderm fig. 26. + 4. Septal touching both endoderm and hypoderm, + forming a septum fig. 30. + +Among the Soft Pines the external duct is invariable in the subsection +Paracembra. It is also characteristic of the Strobi, where it is +sometimes associated with a medial duct. In the Cembrae and the +Flexiles, however, the ducts are external in some species, or medial or +both in others, without regard to the affinities of these species. + +Among the Hard Pines the external duct is characteristic of the Old +World, there being but two American Pines with this character (resinosa +and tropicalis). The internal duct is peculiar to Hard Pines of the New +World, its presence in Old World species being extremely rare. The +medial duct is common to species of both hemispheres, either alone or in +association with ducts in other positions (figs. 25, 27). The septal +duct is peculiar to a few species (oocarpa, tropicalis, and less +frequently Pringlei and Merkusii). I have also seen it in a leaf of P. +canariensis. The internal and septal ducts appear to be confined to the +species of warm-temperate or tropical countries. + +The number of resin-ducts of a single leaf may be limited to two or +three (strobus, koraiensis, etc.), but in many species it is exceedingly +variable and often large (pinaster, sylvestris, etc.). Eighteen or more +ducts in a single leaf have been recorded. Such large numbers are +peculiar to Pinus. Occasionally a single leaf, possibly the leaves of a +single tree, may be without ducts, but this is never true of all the +leaves of a species. + + +THE STELAR TISSUES. + +The walls of the endoderm are, in most species, uniform, but, with P. +albicaulis and some species of western North America, the outer walls of +the cells are conspicuously thickened (fig. 32). Both thin and thick +walls may be found among the leaves of the group Macrocarpae and of the +species longifolia. + +The fibro-vascular bundle of the leaf is single in Soft Pines, double in +Hard Pines. This distinction is employed by Koehne as the basis of his +two sections, Haploxylon and Diploxylon. The double bundle is usually +obvious even when the two parts are contiguous, but they are sometimes +completely merged into an apparently single bundle. This condition, +however, is never constant in a Hard Pine, and a little investigation +will discover a leaf with a true double bundle. + +Some cells about the fibro-vascular bundle acquire thick walls with the +appearance and chemical reaction of the hypoderm cells. Among the Soft +Pines this condition is most obvious in the group Cembroides. Among the +Hard Pines it appears in all degrees of development, being absent (figs. +24, 25), sometimes in irregular lines above and below the bundle (figs. +26, 27, 30, 31), or forming a conspicuous tissue between and partly +enclosing the two parts of the bundle (figs. 28, 29). + +The leaf-section furnishes sectional and other lesser distinctions. It +is often decisive in separating species otherwise difficult to +distinguish (nigra and resinosa or Thunbergii and sinensis, etc.). +Sometimes it is sufficiently distinct to determine a species without +recourse to other characters (tropicalis, oocarpa, Merkusii, etc.). An +intimate knowledge of the leaf-section, with an understanding of the +limits of its variation, is a valuable equipment for recognizing +species. + +[Illustration: PLATE II. SECONDARY LEAVES] + + +THE FLOWERS. Plate III, figs. 33-39. + +The flowers in Pinus are monoecious, the pistillate in the position of a +long shoot, taking the place of a subterminal or lateral bud, the +staminate in the position of a dwarf-shoot, taking the place of a +leaf-fascicle but confined to the basal part of the internode. + +Pistillate flowers are single or verticillate. On multinodal shoots they +are often multiserial, appearing on two or more nodes of the same +spring-shoot (fig. 33). On uninodal shoots they are necessarily +subterminal (fig. 34), the lateral pistillate flower being possible only +on multinodal shoots (fig. 35) where it is often associated with the +subterminal flower (fig. 33). Like the multinodal shoot, on which its +existence depends, the lateral pistillate flower cannot be employed for +grouping the species. It is merely the frequent, but not the essential, +evidence of condition of growth that is more perfectly characterized by +the shoot itself. + +Staminate catkins are in crowded clusters, capitate or elongate (figs. +36, 37), but with much variation in the number of catkins in each +cluster. In P. rigida I have found single catkins or clusters of all +numbers from two to seventy or more. In P. Massoniana and P. densiflora +a cluster attains such unusual length (fig. 37) that this character +becomes a valuable distinction between these species and P. sinensis, +which has short-capitate clusters. The catkins differ much in size, the +largest being found among the Hard Pines. + +In the connective of the binate pollen-sacs there is a notable +difference (figs. 38, 39), the smaller form being characteristic of the +Soft Pines. But this is not invariable (excelsa, sylvestris, etc.), and +the absence of complete data does not permit an accurate estimate of its +importance. + + +THE CONELET. Plate III, figs. 40-45. + +After pollination the pistillate flower closes and becomes the conelet, +the staminate flowers withering and falling away. The conelet makes no +appreciable growth until the following year. Like the pistillate flower +it may be subterminal or lateral, but a subterminal pistillate flower +may become a pseudolateral conelet by reason of a summer-growth (fig. +40-a). Such a condition may be recognized on the branchlets of the +present, and of the previous year (fig. 40-b), by the very short +internode and short leaves beyond the fruit. + +The conelet offers some distinctions of form, of color, and of length of +peduncle, while in some species (sylvestris, caribaea, etc.) its +reflexed position is an important specific character. The most important +distinctions, however, are found in its scales, which may be + + 1. entire subsection Cembra fig. 41. + 2. tuberculate tropicalis, etc. fig. 42. + 3. short-mucronate sylvestris, glabra, etc. fig. 43. + 4. long-mucronate aristata, contorta, etc. fig. 44. + 5. spinescent taeda, pungens, etc. fig. 45. + +[Illustration: PLATE III. FLOWERS AND CONELET] + + +THE CONE. Plate IV. + +The cone of Pinus shows great differences of color, form and tissue; +these are useful for specific and sectional distinctions, while the +gradual change from the primitive conditions of the Cembrae to the +elaborate form, structure and mode of dissemination of some serotinous +species are obvious evidence of an evolution among the species of +remarkable taxonomic range. A form new among Coniferae appears, the +oblique cone, and a new condition, the serotinous cone, both appearing +at first alone and, finally, in constant association. + + +COLOR OF THE CONE. + +With few exceptions the color of the ripe cone may be classified under +one of the following shades of brown or yellow. + + Nut-brown The stain of the walnut-husk. + Rufous brown A pronounced reddish nut-brown. + Fulvous brown A yellowish nut-brown. + Tawny yellow The color of the lion. + Orange Ochre-yellow to red-orange. + +These colors may be paler or deeper. They may be obscured by a fuscous +shade or may be modified by a dull or lustrous surface. The presence of +two or more of these shades in a single species and the inherent +difficulties of color description lessen the value of the character. +Nevertheless certain allied species, such as P. nigra and Thunbergii, or +P. densiflora and Massoniana, may be distinguished by the prevalent +difference in the color of their cones. + + +DIMENSIONS OF THE CONE. + +The cone is small, medium or large in different species, but varies +greatly under the influences of environment or of individual +peculiarities. The character possesses relative value only, for great +variation is possible in the same locality and even on the same tree. + + +THE PEDUNCLE. + +All conelets are pedunculate, but in some species the peduncle, even +when long (patula), may become overgrown and concealed by the basal +scales of the ripe cone. Articulation usually takes place between the +peduncle and the branch, sometimes with the loss of a few basal scales +which remain temporarily on the tree (ponderosa, palustris, etc.). With +P. Nelsonii, and to a less degree with P. Armandi, there is articulation +between the cone and its peduncle. + +There are several species bearing persistent cones with no articulation. +This condition appears in other genera, such as Larix and Picea, but +without obvious significance. In Pinus, however, the gradual appearance +of the persistent cone, for it is rare, common, prevalent or invariable +in different species, and its essential association with the serotinous +cone, suggest an evolution toward a definite end. + + +THE UMBO. + +The exposed part of the scale of the conelet is the umbo of the ripe +cone, a small definite area representing the earlier part of the +biennial growth of the cone. The position of the umbo on the apophysis +is the basis of Koehne's subdivision of the section Haploxylon. + + 1. Umbo terminal Subsection Cembra fig. 46-a. + 2. Umbo dorsal Subsection Paracembra fig. 46-b. + +Two other characters assist in establishing these subsections--the +conelet, unarmed in Cembra, armed in Paracembra--the pits of the +ray-cells of the wood, large in Cembra, small in Paracembra. + + +THE APOPHYSIS. + +The apophysis represents the later and larger growth of the cone-scale. +With a terminal umbo the margin of the apophysis is free and may be +rounded (fig. 49) or may taper to a blunt point (fig. 52), and any +extension of the scale is a terminal extension. With the dorsal umbo all +sides of the apophysis are confined between other apophyses, and any +extension is a dorsal thickening of the apophysis or a dorsal +protuberance. The outline of an apophysis with a dorsal umbo is +quadrangular, or it is irregularly pentagonal or hexagonal, the +different forms depending on the arrangement of the contiguous scales, +whether of definite or indefinite phyllotactic order, a distinction to +be considered later. + +The two positions of the umbo result from the relative growth of the +dorsal and ventral surfaces of the cone-scale. With the terminal umbo +the growth of both surfaces is uniform, with the dorsal umbo the growth +is unequal. A true terminal umbo rests on the surface of the underlying +scale, although several species with terminal umbos show the first +stages of the dorsal umbo. The umbo of P. Lambertiana or of P. flexilis +does not touch the surface of the scale below, and a small portion of +the under side of the apophysis is brought into view on the closed cone. +The cone of P. albicaulis (Plate VIII, fig. 90) shows all degrees of +development between a terminal umbo near the apex of the cone and a +dorsal umbo near its base. + +The growth of the apophysis may be limited and constant (strobus, +echinata, etc.) or exceedingly variable, ranging from a slight thickness +to a long protuberance (pseudostrobus, montana, etc.). The protuberance +is usually reflexed from the unequal growth of the two surfaces. With +the terminal umbo the protuberance lengthens the scale, with the dorsal +umbo it thickens the scale. It is sometimes a specific character +(ayacahuite, longifolia) appearing on all cones of the species, +sometimes a varietal form, associated in the same species with an +unprolonged apophysis (sylvestris, montana). + +On different parts of the same cone, base, centre or apex, the +dimensions of the apophyses differ, but at each level the scales may be +uniform on all sides of the cone. That is to say, the cone is +symmetrical with reference to any plane passing through its axis. This, +the symmetrical cone, is characteristic of all other genera of the +Abietineae, and is invariable among the Soft Pines and in many Hard +Pines (figs. 47, 48, 52, 54). But among the Hard Pines there is +gradually developed a new form of cone with smaller flatter apophyses on +the anterior, and larger thicker apophyses on the posterior surface. +This is the peculiar oblique cone of Pinus (figs. 50, 51, 53), +symmetrical with reference to one plane only, which includes the axis of +both cone and branch. The oblique cone is a gradual development among +the Hard Pines; in some species it is associated as a varietal form with +the symmetrical cone, and finally, in some serotinous species, it is the +constant form. + + +THE OBLIQUE CONE. + +When the oblique cone is merely a varietal form (halepensis, etc.), it +gives the impression of an accident, resulting from the reflexed +position of the cone and the consequent greater development of the +scales receiving a greater amount of light and air. But with the +serotinous cones (radiata, attenuata), the advantages of this form +become apparent. The cones of these species are in crowded nodal +clusters, reflexed against the branch (fig. 50). The inner, anterior +scales are perfectly protected by their position, while the outer, +posterior scales are exposed to the weather. These last only are very +thick; that is to say, there is an economical distribution of protective +tissue, with the greatest amount where it is most needed. The oblique +form is peculiarly adapted for a cone destined to remain on the tree for +twenty years or more and to preserve its seeds unimpaired. Like the +persistent cone, the oblique cone finds in association with the +serotinous cone a definite reason for existence. + +[Illustration: PLATE IV. THE CONE] + + +PHYLLOTAXIS. Plate V. + +There is an obvious difference between the cones of the two sections of +the genus. Those of the Soft Pines (figs. 55, 56) have larger and fewer +scales, those of the Hard Pines (figs. 57, 58) have more numerous and +smaller scales, in proportion to the size of the cone. The former +condition represents a lower, the latter condition represents a higher, +order of phyllotaxis. + + +DEFINITE PHYLLOTAXIS. + +On a cylindrical axis with scales of the same size, the spiral +arrangement would appear as in fig. 62, where the scales are +quadrangular and any four adjacent scales are in mutual contact at their +sides or angles. These four scales lie on four obvious secondary spirals +(fig. 59, a-a, b-b, c-c, d-d). According to the phyllotactic order of +the scales these may be the spirals of 2, 3, 5, 8 or of 3, 5, 8, 13 or +of 5, 8, 13, 21 etc., etc., from which combinations the primary spiral, +on which the scales are inserted on the cone-axis, can be easily +deduced. Four quadrangular scales in mutual contact represent the +condition of definite phyllotaxis. If the cone is conical, definite +phyllotaxis would be possible among all the scales only when the size of +the scales diminishes in equal measure with the gradual diminution of +the cone's diameter. Such a hypothetical cone is shown in fig. 61. + + +INDEFINITE PHYLLOTAXIS. + +On an imaginary cone of conical form and with scales of equal size +throughout, there must be more scales about the base than about the apex +of the cone. The phyllotactic conditions must differ, and the obvious +spirals, in passing from base to apex, must undergo readjustment. If the +scales at the base are in definite phyllotactic order and those at the +apex are in the next lower order, it is evident that intermediate +scales, in the gradual change from one condition to the other, must +represent different conditions of indefinite phyllotaxis, while those in +a central position on the cone may belong equally to either of two +orders. + +A Pine cone is never absolutely cylindrical nor do its scales vary in +size proportionately to the change of diameter. Most of the scales of a +cone are in indefinite phyllotactic relation, while definite phyllotaxis +is found only at points on the cone. + +As an extreme illustration, the cone of P. pinaster (fig. 60) shows four +mutually contiguous quadrangular apophyses at (a), lying on the obvious +spirals 5, 8, 13, 21, at (b) four similar apophyses on the spirals 3, 5, +8, 13, and at (c) four others on the spirals 2, 3, 5, 8. Between these +three points are apophyses of irregular pentagonal or hexagonal outline, +with three scales only in mutual contact (figs. 63, 64). Such are the +majority of the scales of the cone and represent more or less indefinite +conditions of phyllotaxis. + +The cones of Hard Pines, by reason of relatively more and smaller scales +and of a more conical form, attain a higher phyllotaxis and a more +complex condition, two or even three orders being represented on a +single cone; while the cones of Soft Pines, by reason of relatively +fewer and larger scales and a more cylindrical form, are of lower +phyllotaxis, with one order only more or less definitely presented. +Therefore phyllotaxis furnishes another distinction between the two +sections of the genus, but its further employment is exceedingly +restricted on account of the constant repetition of the same orders +among the species. + +[Illustration: PLATE V. PHYLLOTAXIS OF THE CONE] + + +THE CONE-TISSUES. Plate VI. + +The axis of the cone is a woody shell, enclosing a wide pith and covered +by a thick cortex traversed by resin-ducts. By removing the scales and +cortex from the axis (fig. 65) the wood is seen to be in sinuous strands +uniting above and below fusiform openings, the points of insertion of +the cone-scales. From the wood, at each insertion, three stout strands +enter the scale, dividing and subdividing into smaller tapering +strands whose delicate tips converge toward the umbo. Fig. 70 represents +a magnified cross-section of half the cone-scale of P. Greggii; at (a) +is a compact dorsal plate of bast cells; at (e) is a ventral plate of +the same tissue but of less amount; at (b) is the softer brown tissue +enclosing the wood-strands (d, d) (the last much more magnified in fig. +69) and the resin-ducts (e, e). + + +WOOD STRANDS. + +The wood-strands, forming the axis of the cone, differ in tenacity in +the two sections of the genus. Those of the Soft Pines are easily pulled +apart by the fingers, those of the Hard Pines are tougher in various +degrees and cannot be torn apart without the aid of a tool. This +difference is correlated with differences in other tissues, all of them +combining in a gradual change from a cone of soft yielding texture to +one of great hardness and durability. + +If a cone scale of P. ayacahuite is stripped of its brown and bast +tissues (fig. 66) and is immersed in water and subsequently dried, there +is at first a flexion toward the cone-axis (fig. 67) and then away from +it (fig. 68). The wood-strands are hygroscopic and cooperate with the +bast tissues in opening and closing the cone. This appears to be true of +all species excepting the three species of the Cembrae, whose strands +are so small and weak that they are not obviously affected by +hygrometric changes. + + +BAST TISSUE. + +With the exception of the three species of the Cembrae the inner part of +the cone-scales is protected by sclerenchymatous cells forming hard +dorsal and ventral plates (fig. 70, a, c). In Soft Pines these cells are +subordinate to the more numerous parenchymatous cells, but in Hard Pines +the sclerenchyma increases in amount until, among the serotinous +species, it is the predominating tissue of the cone-scale, giving to +these cones their remarkable strength and durability. + +This bast tissue is hygroscopic and, with its greater thickness on the +dorsal surface, there is a much greater strain on that side of the +scale, tending to force the scales apart when they are ripe and dry, and +subsequently closing and opening the cone on rainy and sunny days. + +The cone, during the second season's growth, is completely closed, its +scales adhering together with more or less tenacity. In most species the +hygroscopic energy of the scales is sufficient to open the cone under +the dry condition of its maturity, but with several species the adhesion +is so persistent that some of the cones remain closed for many years. +These are the peculiar serotinous cones of the genus. + + +THE SEROTINOUS CONE. + +As an illustration of the area to which the adhesion is confined, a +section may be sawed from a cone of P. attenuata (fig. 71). The axis and +the scales that have been severed from their apophyses (b) can be easily +pushed out of the annulus (a), which is composed wholly of apophyses so +firmly adherent that they will successfully resist a strong effort to +break them apart. When immersed in boiling water, however, the ring +falls to pieces. An examination of these pieces discovers adhesion only +on a narrow ventral border under the apophysis and on a corresponding +dorsal border back of the apophysis. The rest of the scale is not +adherent, so that the seed is free to fall at the opening of the cone. + +The serotinous cone is a gradual development, wanting in most species, +rare in a few, less or more frequent in others. A similar evolution of +the persistent cone, of the oblique cone and of the cone-tissues has +been already discussed. All these progressive characters culminate in +mutual association in P. radiata and its allies. The result is a highly +specialized fruit that should convey taxonomic significance of some +kind. + +With all serotinous species that I have seen, some of the trees open +their cones at maturity, others at indefinite intervals. That is to say, +the seed of a prolific year is not at the mercy of a single, perhaps +unfavorable season. The chances of successful germination are much +increased by the intermittent seed-release peculiar to these Pines. Such +a method of dissemination must accrue to the advantage of a species. In +other words, this intermittent dissemination and the oblique form of +cone with its perfected tissues all mark the highest development of the +genus. + + +THE SEED. Plate VI. Figs. 72-79. + +The seed of Pinus contains an embryo, with the cotyledons clearly +defined, embedded in albumen, which is protected by a bony testa with an +external membranous spermoderm, produced, in most species, into an +effective wing. While the seed of other genera of the Abietineae shows +no striking difference among the species, that of Pinus is remarkably +variable, presenting alike the most primitive and the most elaborate +forms among the Conifers. These differences are valuable for the +segregation of kindred species and for some specific distinctions. + + +WINGLESS SEEDS. + +With wingless seeds the main distinction is found in the spermoderm, +which is entire in one species only, P. koraiensis. In P. cembra it is +wanting on the ventral surface of the nut, but on the dorsal surface, it +is adnate partly to the nut, partly to the cone-scale. The nut of P. +albicaulis and that of P. cembroides are quite bare of membranous cover. +The spermoderm of P. flexilis is reduced to a marginal border, slightly +produced into a rudimentary wing adnate to the nut. + + +THE ADNATE WING. + +In P. strobus, longifolia and their allies and in P. Balfouriana the +spermoderm is prolonged into an effective wing-blade from a marginal +adnate base like that of P. flexilis. This adnate wing cannot be +detached without injury. + + +THE ARTICULATE WING. + +The articulate wing can be removed from the nut and can be replaced +without injury. An ineffective form of this wing is seen in the +Gerardianae and in P. pinea, where the blade is very short and the base +has no effective grasp on the nut. + +The base of the effective articulate wing contains hygroscopic tissue +which acts with the hygroscopic tissue of the cone-scales. The dry +conditions that open the cone and release the seeds cause the bifurcate +base of the wing to grasp the nut more firmly. + +This articulate wing is found in P. aristata and in all Hard Pines +except P. pinea, longifolia and canariensis. The wing-blade is usually +membranous throughout, but in some species there is a thickening of the +base of the blade that meets the membranous apical part in an oblique +line along which the wing is easily broken apart. This last condition +attains in P. Coulteri and its associates a remarkable development. + +Plate VI, fig. 72 shows the wingless seed of P. cembroides; fig. 73 +represents the seed of P. flexilis, with a rudimentary wing; fig. 74 +shows two seeds of P. strobus, intact and with the wing broken away; +fig. 75 represents the articulate wing, whose bifurcate base when wet +(fig. 76) tends to open and release the nut. When dry (fig. 77) the +forks of the base, in the absence of the nut, close together and cross +their tips; figs. 78, 79 show the peculiar reinforced articulate wing of +P. Coulteri. + +Such wide variation in so important an organ suggests generic +difference. But here we are met by the association of the different +forms in species evidently closely allied. The two Foxtail Pines are so +similar in most characters that they have been considered, with good +reason, to be specifically identical; yet the seed-wing of P. +Balfouriana is adnate, that of P. aristata articulate. P. Ayacahuite +produces not only the characteristic wing of the Strobi, adnate, long +and effective, but also, in the northern variety, a seed with a +rudimentary wing, the exact counterpart of the seed of P. flexilis. In +both sections of the genus are found the effective adnate wing (Strobi +and Longifoliae) and the inefficient articulate wing (Gerardianae and +Pineae). A little examination of all forms of the seed will show that +they blend gradually one into another. + +The color of the wing is occasionally peculiar, as in the group +Longifoliae. There is usually no constancy in this character, for the +wing may be uniform in color or variously striated in seeds of the same +species. The length and breadth of the seed-wing, being dependent on the +varying sizes of the cone-scale, differ in the same cone. They are also +inconstant in different cones of the same species, and of this +inconstancy the seed of P. ayacahuite furnishes the most notable +example. + +[Illustration: PLATE VI. CONE-TISSUES AND SEEDS] + + +THE WOOD. Plate VII. + +With the exception of the medullary rays, a very small proportion of the +whole, the wood of Pinus, as seen in cross-section (fig. 82), is a +homogeneous tissue of wood-tracheids with interspersed resin-ducts. In +tangential section the medullary rays appear in two forms, linear, +without a resin-duct, and fusiform, with a central resin-duct. In radial +section the cells of the linear rays are of two kinds, ray-tracheids, +forming the upper and lower limits of the ray, characterized by small +bordered pits, and ray-cells, between the tracheids, characterized by +simple pits. + +The walls of the ray-tracheids may be smooth or dentate; the pits of the +ray-cells may be large or small. These conditions admit of four +combinations, all of which appear in the medullary rays of Pinus, and of +which a schematic representation is given in Plate VII. These +combinations are + + Ray-tracheids with smooth walls. Soft Pines. + Ray-cells with large pits Subsection Cembra fig. 80. + Ray-cells with small pits Subsection Paracembra fig. 81. + + Ray-tracheids with dentate walls. Hard Pines. + Ray-cells with large pits Group Lariciones fig. 83. + Ray-cells with small pits Other Hard Pines fig. 84. + +This, the simplest classification of Pine-wood, is not without +exceptions. P. pinea of the Hard Pines resembles, in its +wood-characters, P. Gerardiana and P. Bungeana of the Soft Pines. The +dentate ray-tracheids of P. longifolia are not always obvious. The +tracheids of P. luchuensis, according to Bergerstein (Wiesner Festschr. +112), have smooth walls. My specimen shows dentate tracheids. There is +also evidence of transition from small to large pits (I. W. Bailey in +Am. Nat. xliv. 292). Both large and small pits appear in my specimen of +P. Merkusii. + +Of other wood-characters, the presence or absence of tangential pits in +the tracheids of the late wood establishes a distinction between Soft +and Hard Pines. These pits, however, while always present in Soft Pines, +are not always absent in Hard Pines. The single and multiple rows of +resin-ducts in the wood of the first year may prove to be a reliable +sectional distinction, but this character has not been sufficiently +investigated to test its constancy. The wood-characters, therefore, +however decisive they may be for establishing the phylogenetic relations +of different genera, must be employed in the classification of the Pines +with the same reservations that apply to external characters. + +Ray-tracheids with dentate walls and ray-cells with large pits are +peculiar to Pinus. Therefore the presence of these characters, alone or +in combination, is sufficient evidence for the recognition of Pine-wood. +But the combination of smooth tracheids with small pits (subsection +Paracembra) Pinus shares with Picea, Larix and Pseudotsuga. + +Among Hard Pines the size of the pits has a certain geographical +significance. The large pits are found in all species of the Old World +except P. halepensis and P. pinaster; the small pits in all species of +the New World except P. resinosa and P. tropicalis. The Asiatic P. +Merkusii with both large and small pits is not strictly an exception to +this geographical distinction. The four exceptional species by this and +by other characters unite the Hard Pines of the two hemispheres. + + +THE BARK. + +Bark is the outer part of the cortex that has perished, having been cut +off from nourishment by the thin hard plates of the bark-scales. In the +late and early bark-formation is found a general but by no means an +exact distinction between Soft and Hard Pines. In the Soft Pines the +cortex remains alive for many years, adjusting itself by growth to the +increasing thickness of the wood. The trunks of young trees remain +smooth and without rifts. In the Hard Pines the bark-formation begins +early and the trunks of young trees are covered with a scaly or rifted +bark. The smooth upper trunk of older trees is invariable in Soft Pines, +but in Hard Pines there are several exceptions to early bark-formation. +These exceptions are easily recognized in the field, and the character +is of decisive specific importance (glabra, halepensis, etc.). + +Among species with early bark-formation are two forms of bark: 1, +cumulative, sufficiently persistent to acquire thickness and the +familiar dark gray and fuscous-brown shades of bark long exposed to the +weather; 2, deciduous, constantly falling away in thin scales and +exposing fresh red inner surfaces. The latter are commonly known as Red +Pines, as distinguished from Black Pines with dark cumulative bark. +Deciduous bark changes after some years to cumulative bark, and the +upper trunk only of mature trees is red. Red Pines, although usually +recognizable by their bark, are by no means constant in this character. +Oecological or pathological influences may check the fall of the +bark-scales, and then the distinction between the upper and lower parts +of the trunk becomes lost. + +[Illustration: PLATE VII. THE WOOD] + + + +SUMMARY + +The various characters that have been considered in the previous pages +may be classified under different heads, some of them applicable to the +whole genus, others to larger or smaller groups of species. + + +GENERIC CHARACTERS + +Several characters, quite distinct from those of other genera, are +common to all the species. + + 1. The primary leaf--appearing as a scale or bract throughout the + life of the tree. + 2. The bud--its constant position at the nodes. + 3. The internode--its three distinct divisions. + 4. The secondary leaves--in cylindrical fascicles with a basal + sheath. + 5. The pistillate flower--its constant nodal position and its + verticillate clusters. + 6. The staminate flower--its constant basal position on the + internode and its compact clusters. + 7. The cone--its clearly defined annual growths. + +Pinus is also peculiar in the dimorphism of shoots and leaves and in +their constant interrelations with the diclinous flowers. Evolutionary +processes develop features peculiar to Pinus alone (the oblique cone, +etc.), but confined to a limited number of species. + + +SECTIONAL CHARACTERS + +There are several characters that actually or potentially divide the +genus into two distinct sections, popularly known as Soft and Hard +Pines. + + 1. The fibro-vascular bundle of the leaf, single or double. + 2. The base of the bract subtending the leaf-fascicle, non-decurrent + or decurrent + 3. The phyllotaxis of the cone, simple or complex. + 4. The flower-bud, its less or greater development. + +Some characters indicate the same distinction but are subject each to a +few exceptions. + + 5. The fascicle-sheath, deciduous or persistent. + 6. The walls of the ray-tracheids, smooth or dentate. + 7. The connective of the pollen-sacs, large or small. + 8. The formation of bark, late or early. + +SUBSECTIONAL CHARACTERS + +An exact subdivision of the Soft Pines is possible on the following +characters. + + 1. The umbo of the cone-scales, terminal or dorsal. + 2. The scales of the conelet, mutic or armed. + 3. The pits of the ray-cells, large or small. + + +EVOLUTIONAL CHARACTERS + +The progressive evolution of the fruit of Pinus, from a symmetrical cone +of weak tissues, bearing a wingless seed, to an indurated oblique cone +with an elaborate form of winged seed and an intermittent dissemination, +appears among the species in various degrees of development as follows-- + + The seed + + 1. wingless. + 2. with a rudimentary wing. + 3. with an effective adnate wing. + 4. with an ineffective articulate wing. + 5. with an effective articulate wing. + 6. with an articulate wing, thickened at the base of the blade. + + The cone + + 1. indehiscent. + 2. dehiscent and deciduous. + 3. dehiscent and persistent. + 4. persistent and serotinous. + + and as to its form + + 5. symmetrical. + 6. subsymmetrical. + 7. oblique. + +These different forms of the seed and, to some extent, of the cone, are +available for segregating the species into groups of closely related +members; while the gradual progression of the fruit, from a primitive to +a highly specialized form of cone and method of dissemination, points to +a veritable taxonomic evolution which is here utilized as the +fundamental motive of the systematic classification of the species. + + +SPECIFIC CHARACTERS + +All aspects of vegetative and reproductive organs may contribute toward +a determination of species, but the importance of each character is +often relative, being conclusive with one group of species, useless with +another. Characters considered by earlier authors to be invariable with +species, such as the dimensions of leaf or cone, the number of leaves in +the fascicle, the position of the resin-ducts, the presence of pruinose +branchlets, etc., prove to be inconstant in some species. In fact, as +the botanical horizon enlarges, the varietal limits of the species +broaden and many restrictions imposed by earlier systems are gradually +disappearing. + +Variation is the preliminary step toward the creation of species, which +come into being with the elimination of intermediate forms. Variation in +a species may be the result of its participation in the evolutionary +processes culminating in the serotinous Pines, or it may result from the +ability of the species to adapt itself to various environments by +sympathetic modifications of growth, or it may arise from some +peculiarity of the individual tree. + +Evolutionary variation is associated with the gradual appearance of the +persistent, the oblique and the serotinous cone, and of the multinodal +spring-shoot. For these conditions appear in less or greater prevalence +among the species of the genus. + +Variation induced by environment finds familiar illustrations among the +species that can survive at the limits of vegetation and can meet these +inhospitable conditions by a radical change of all growing parts. Such +variations are mainly of dimensions, but, with some species, the number +of fascicle-leaves is affected and the shorter growing-season may modify +the cone-tissues. In Mexico and Central America are found extremes of +climate within small areas and easily within the range of dissemination +from a single tree. The cause of the bewildering host of varietal forms, +connecting widely contrasted extremes, seems to lie in the facile +adaptability of those Pines, which are able to spread from the tropical +base of a mountain to a less or greater distance toward its snow-capped +summit. + +The peculiarities of individual trees that induce abnormally short or +long growths, the dwarf or other monstrous forms, the variegations in +leaf-coloring, etc., etc., are not available for classification, for +they may appear in any species, in fact in any genus of Conifers. These +variations are artificially multiplied for commercial and decorative +purposes. But inasmuch as they are repeated in all species and genera of +the Coniferae that have been long under the observation of skillful +gardeners, their significance has a broader scope than that imposed by +the study of a single genus. + + + + +PART II + +CLASSIFICATION OF THE SPECIES + + +The following classification is based on the gradual evolution of the +fruit from a cone symmetrical in form, parenchymatous in tissue, +indehiscent and deciduous at maturity, releasing its wingless seed by +disintegration--to a cone oblique in form, very strong and durable in +tissue, persistent on the tree, intermittently dehiscent, releasing its +winged seeds partly at maturity, partly at indefinite intervals during +several years. This evolution embraces two extreme forms of fruit, one +the most primitive, the other the most elaborate, among Conifers. + +Two sections of the genus, Soft and Hard Pines, are distinguished by +several correlated characters, and moreover are distinct by obvious +differences in the tissues of their cones as well as in the quality and +appearance of their wood. + +With the Soft Pines the species group naturally under two subsections on +the position of the umbo, the anatomy of the wood and the armature of +the conelet. In one subsection (Cembra) are found three species, P. +cembra and its allies, with the cone-tissues so completely +parenchymatous that the cones cannot release the seeds except by +disintegration. In both subsections there is a gradual evolution from a +wingless nut to one with an effective wing, adnate in one subsection, +adnate and articulate in the other. The different stages of this +evolution are so distinct that the Soft Pines are easily separated into +definite groups. + +Among the Hard Pines a few species show characters that are peculiar to +the Soft Pines. These exceptional species form a subsection +(Parapinaster) by themselves. + +With the remaining species, the majority of the Pines, the distinctions +that obtain among Soft Pines have disappeared. The dorsal umbo, the +articulate seed-wing, the persistent fascicle-sheath, the dorsal and +ventral stomata of the leaf and its serrate margins, the dentate walls +of the ray-tracheids have become fixed and constant. But a new form of +seed-wing appears, with a thickened blade, assuming such proportions in +P. Sabiniana and its two allies that these three constitute a distinct +group, remarkable also for the size of its cones. + +Here also appear a new form of fruit, the oblique cone, and a new method +of dissemination, the serotinous cone. Associated with the latter are +the persistent cone and the multinodal spring-shoot. These characters do +not develop in such perfect sequence and regularity that they can be +employed for grouping the species without forcing some of them into +unnatural association. The oblique cone first appears sporadically here +and there and without obvious reason. The persistent cone, the first +stage of the serotinous cone, is equally sporadic in the earlier stages +of evolution. The same may be said of the multinodal shoot. + +Nevertheless these characters show an obvious progression toward a +definite goal, where they are all united in a small group of species +remarkable for the form and texture of their cones, for a peculiar +seed-release and for the vigor and rapidity of their growth. It is +possible, with the assistance of other characters, to segregate these +species in three groups in which the affinities are respected and the +general trend of their evolution is preserved. + +The first group, the Lariciones, contains species with large ray-pits, +cones dehiscent at maturity, and uninodal spring-shoots. They are, with +two exceptions, P. resinosa and P. tropicalis, Old World species. + +The second group, the Australes, contains species with small ray-pits, +cones dehiscent at maturity and spring-shoots gradually changing, among +the species, from a uninodal to a multinodal form. They are, without +exception, species of the New World. + +The third group, the Insignes, contains the serotinous species. The +ray-pits are small and the spring-shoots are, with two exceptions, +multinodal. With two exceptions, P. halepensis and P. pinaster, they are +New World species. + +These three groups, being the progressive sequence of a lineal +evolution, are not absolutely circumscribed, but are more or less +connected through a few intermediate species of each group. The +systematic position of these intermediate species is determined by their +obvious affinities. It cannot be expected that the variations, which +take an important part in the evolution of the species, progress with +equal step or in perfect correlation with each other. + +As to specific determinations, a little experience in the field +discloses an amount of variation in species that does not always appear +in the descriptions of authors; and species that are under the closest +scrutiny of botanists, foresters or horticulturalists, attest by their +multiple synonymy their wide variation. The possibilities of variation +are indefinite and, with adaptable Pines, the range of variation is +somewhat proportionate to change of climate. In mountainous countries, +where there are warm sheltered valleys with rich soil below cold barren +ledges, the most variable Pines are found. The western species of North +America, for instance, are much more variable than the eastern species, +while in Mexico, a tropical country with snow-capped mountains, the +variation is greatest. + +Therefore in the limitation of species undue importance should not be +given to characters responsive to environment, such as the dimensions of +leaf or cone, the number of leaves in the fascicle, etc. Moreover, there +are familiar examples (P. sylvestris, etc.) that show the possibility of +wide differences in the cone of the same species. + +In the following classification species only are considered without +attempting to determine varietal or other subspecific forms. But +varieties are often mentioned as one of the factors illustrating the +scope of species. Synonymy serves a like purpose, but synonyms not +conveying useful information are omitted, Roezl's list of Mexican +species, for instance, and variations in the orthography of specific +names. + + +PINUS + + 1755 Pinus Duhamel, Traite des Arbres, ii. 121. + 1790 Apinus Necker, Elem.

Flowers diclinous, the pistillate taking the +place of long shoots, the staminate taking the place of dwarf shoots. +Growth of wood and fruit emanating from the nodes; buds, branchlets and +cones, therefore, in verticillate association. Leaves and staminate +flowers in internodal position, the primary leaves along the whole +length of the internode, subtending secondary leaf-fascicles on the +apical, staminate flowers on the basal part. Buds compounded of minute +buds in the axils of bud-scales, becoming the bracts of the +spring-shoot. Branchlets of one or more internodes, each internode in +three parts--a length without leaves, a length bearing leaves and a node +of buds. Cone requiring two, rarely three years to mature, displaying +its annual growths by distinct areas on each scale. Seeds wingless or +winged, edible and nutritious. + +The Pines are confined to the northern hemisphere, but grow in all +climates and under all conditions of soil, temperature and humidity +where trees can grow. Some of the species are of very restricted range, +but others are adaptable and can cover wide areas. The sixty-six species +are distributed as follows-- + + Eastern Hemisphere, 23. + + 1 exclusively African (Canary Islands). + 2 exclusively European. + 3 about the Mediterranean Basin. + 2 common to Europe and northern Asia. + 14 exclusively Asiatic. + + Western Hemisphere, 43. + + 28 in western North America, of which 12 are confined to Mexico + and Central America. + 15 in eastern North America, of which 2 are exclusively West Indian. + +The two sections of the genus correspond with those of Koehne (Deutsch. +Dendrol. 28 [1893]) and his two names, Haploxylon and Diploxylon, are +adopted here, together with his two subsections of Haploxylon, Cembra +and Paracembra. + +Of the two subsections of Diploxylon, Pinaster has been employed by +Endlicher (Syn.

Leaves +serrulate, stomatiferous on all faces, the sheath persistent. Walls of +the tracheids of the medullary rays dentate. + + Forty-two of the sixty-six species of Pinus are included in this + subsection. As a group they are clearly circumscribed by several + correlated characters and are more closely interrelated than the + twenty-four species previously described. The distinctions of umbo and + seed have disappeared. The umbo here is invariably dorsal, the + seed-wing invariably articulate. + + New forms, however, are gradually evolved--the seed with a thick + wing-blade, the indurated oblique cone, the serotinous cone with its + intermittent seed-release, and the multinodal spring-shoot. There are, + moreover, new forms of leaf-hypoderm and a new position of the + resin-duct. + + Of these new characters, the thick wing-blade attains such proportions + in the three species of the Macrocarpae that they can be grouped + apart. But the characters that finally culminate in a lateral oblique + serotinous cone are so gradually and irregularly developed that they + offer no divisional distinctions. With the aid of wood and leaf + characters, however, groups can be established which preserve the + evolutionary sequence and, at the same time, the obvious affinity of + the species. + + Wing-blade thin or slightly thickened at the base. + Cones dehiscent at maturity. + Pits of the ray-cells large X.

Macrocarpae + + The species of this subsection are very difficult, if not impossible, + to classify by the usual method, which groups all species under a few + characters assumed to be invariable and of fundamental importance. + Such a method can be successfully applied to the Soft Pines and to + some of the Hard Pines, but cannot be applied to all the Hard Pines + without forcing some of them into unnatural associations. + + To take an example, the group Pseudostrobus, characterized by + pentamerous leaf-fascicles, appears in many systems. In this group are + placed P. Torreyana and P. leiophylla. Another group, with trimerous + fascicles, contains P. Sabiniana and P. taeda. Now there are no two + species more obviously related by important peculiarities than P. + Torreyana and P. Sabiniana; nevertheless they are, by this method, + kept apart and associated with species which they resemble in no + important particular. + + An attempt is made here to avoid such incongruities. Groups X, XI and + XII represent different stages of evolution. In the Lariciones the + cone is symmetrical, and dehiscent and deciduous at maturity, while + the spring-shoot is uninodal. In the Australes there is a similar + cone, but the spring-shoot gradually becomes multinodal. In the + Insignes the cone is oblique, persistent and serotinous, and the + spring-shoot is multinodal. + + These definitions state the degree of evolution attained by each + group, but not all the species of a group conform exactly with its + definition. In each group are species with a characteristic of another + group. Among the Lariciones are a few species with both symmetrical + and oblique cones, and two with persistent cones. Similar exceptions + occur among the Australes. Among the Insignes are a few species with + symmetrical cones, and two with cones that are rarely, if ever, + serotinous. + + There is, however, no difficulty in fixing the systematic position of + these exceptional species through other characters which show their + true affinity. They are placed with the species which they most + resemble. Their exceptional characters are merely the evidence of the + evolution that pervades and unites the groups. Therefore the + definition of a group is not necessarily the exact definition of its + species, and a species is placed in a group because all its + characters, specific and evolutional, show a closer affinity with that + group than with the species of any other. + + +=X.

It attains its best development in the + northern part of its range, but is never a tree of importance. The + serotinous habit is more pronounced in this than in any other species. + It is distinct from P. radiata, its nearest relative, by the color of + the cone, by its smooth upper trunk and by its much smaller size. + + The possibility of identifying P. californiana Loiseleur (Nouv. Duham. + v. 293), through a cone said to have been sent to the Museum at Paris, + may cause this name to be applied, by reason of its early date (1812), + to some existing species. Don's radiata and tuberculata, although + considered to be the same species, were nevertheless founded on + different forms of the cone.
