Herbs, annual, with taproot. |
|
prostrate, ascending, to erect, 10–45 cm, pilose. |
|
opposite; stipules distinct, subulate, 1–2 mm, pilose; petiole 0.9–1.5 mm, pilose; blade oblanceolate to elliptic, 3–10 × 1–4 mm, base asymmetric, obtuse to hemicordate, margins coarsely serrate, sometimes revolute, apex rounded to acute, abaxial surface sparsely hispidulous to strigillose (densely so on young leaves), adaxial surface glabrous; 3-veined from base but only midvein conspicuous. |
|
campanulate, 1.1–1.4 × 0.5–0.7 mm, pilose; glands 4, red, narrowly reniform, 0.1 × 0.2–0.4 mm; appendages pink to red, larger 2 petal-like, smaller 2 elliptic, 0.4–1 × 0.3–0.5 mm, distal margin erose. |
|
5–8. |
|
ovary pilose; styles 0.4–0.8 mm, 2-fid at apex. |
|
conic or truncate-ovoid, 1–1.2 mm diam., pilose; columella 0.9–1.1 mm. |
|
orange-brown, glaucous, oblong, 4-angled in cross section, 0.7–0.8 × 0.4–0.5 mm, slightly rugose and with 3–4 transverse ridges. |
pediculifera can be variable in terms of leaf shape and the extent of pubescence, but the species is readily identified by the short, appressed hairs on the leaves and the distinctive seed that is encircled by a series of round, transverse ridges. |
|
|
solitary at distal nodes (appearing clustered at points of new growth); peduncle 0.4–0.6 mm. |
|
