When the phyllotaxis of successive orders of shoots is alternate in two rows, the result of this arrangement is that a whole system of shoots is bilateral, or maybe divided by a plane which bisects the leaves (as in Potamogeton, Typha, &c.). The mode of insertion of the cataphyllary and foliage-leaves, and veryoften that of the hypsophyllary leaves (as for instance that of the spathe whichis of common occurrence) is generally entirely or for the greater part amplexicaul, .
