- Diagnosis
- Fruit unilocular capsule, sessile, long elongated in shape with two prominent lateral projection of fruit wall, measures about 804 µm in height and 282 µm in thickness. Fruit shows ruptured pericarp. Pericarp differentiated into three zones epicarp, mesocarp and endocarp. Epicarp consists of thin walled parenchymatous cell measures about 18 µm in width. Mesocarp is sclerenchymatous in nature; it is multilayered with aerenchyma cells, measuring about 42 µm in width. Endocarp single layered measures about 6µm in width. Seed dicot and well preserved measures about 426µm in length and 72 µm in width. Seed coat differentiated into testa and tegmen. The outer epidermis of the outer integument persists with hair like projection. Tegmen without any cellular differentiation. At one end, seed shows persisting nucellar cells. Hypostage seen in the form of inverted cup like structure.
