(monoecious and dioecious plants)

Two Types of Flowers:
• 1. Perfect (Complete): flowers containing BOTH male (stamen) and female (pistil) sexual parts.
• Automatically monoecious
![Page 15: Tree ID and Ecology - lecture 1 (9/28/13)](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103113/554b8723b4c90561588b51d2/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• The male part is termed the Stamen which consists of the anther and filament.
• The female part is the Pistil, which consists of the stigma, style and ovary.
![Page 16: Tree ID and Ecology - lecture 1 (9/28/13)](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103113/554b8723b4c90561588b51d2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• 2. Imperfect (Imcomplete): Flowers containing the reproductive parts of only one sex.
• These imperfect flowers may be on the same plant (monoecious),
• or on separate plants (dioecious).
![Page 17: Tree ID and Ecology - lecture 1 (9/28/13)](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103113/554b8723b4c90561588b51d2/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

The Top Ten reasons for using scientific names
Understand the meaning of the names!
![Page 22: Tree ID and Ecology - lecture 1 (9/28/13)](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103113/554b8723b4c90561588b51d2/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Latin Pronunciation
Pronounce every letter except diphthongsEchinacea, Tradescantia, Opuntia, Ambrosia
“ch” is a “k” sound Polystichum, Heuchera, Aristolochia
If a word has two syllables, the accent always goes with the next to the last (called the penult); e.g., Àcer.
If a word has three or more syllables, the accent always goes either with the next to the last (penult) or the third from the last (called the antepenult).
Synandra hispidula, Onoclea sensibilis, Liriodendron tulipifera phyllum – rhizophyllum, Podophyllum, triphyllum
ae Pellaea, Arisaema, Chamaecristaau Daucus carotaEu Teucrium, LeucanthemumOe (phoebe), Platanthera peramoena, IpomoeaUi Equisetum
“oi” is not a diphthong!Pleopeltis polypodioides
Pronounce when ending with “e”Silene, canadense, sessile, hyemale
Latinized last names (one or two i’s) Dodecatheon frenchii, Emydoidea blandingii
Most trees have been feminized!Quercus rubra, Fagus grandifolia, Ulmus americana
