Cross-Sections of the Pollen Wall of
Sphalmanthus trichotomus (Aizoaceae)


a. Cross-section through a rib of the tectum as seen through a scanning electron microscope: the broad and cylindrical columellae merge into the foot-layer.

b. A section through the perforation layer that shows the extremely narrow apertures at the exine's surface (V. BITTRICH, 1986).
