- ORDO CLX . SALICINEAE [an order containing Salix and Populus]. sic dicta cupula Populi et glandulae Salicis evidenter organa homologa sunt, nam in paucis speciebus Salicis glandulae 2 basi brevissime confluunt, et in Populo euphratica cupula carnosula profunde oo-loba et in floribus nonnullis [female sign] in glandulas distinctas dividitur (B&H), the cupule of Populus and the glandules of Salix are thus called homologous organs, for indeed, in a few species of Salix the 2 glandules at the base are very shortly confluent, and in Populus euphratica the rather fleshy cupule is deeply [numerous-]lobed, and in some [female sign] flowers they are divided into distinct glandules.
