mucronate

Occasionally the mucronate distal end appears to be the result of intentional termination of serrating at the distal end.

In zone view, the median line deeply bisects the longitudinal axis, ending in a mucronate central nodule.

Leaves alternate, deciduous, abruptly once-pinnate; leaflets mucronate; stipules usually spinescent.

Sepals 5, scarcely concave, indistinctly mucronate on the back, greenish.

The first two glumes are empty, thin, keeled, and acute or mucronate.
