Antimima paripetala fruit and bud

Antimima paripetala fruit and bud
Author: Ivan Lätti
Photographer: Judd Kirkel Welwitch

The fruit capsule of Antimima paripetala seen here has six locules. The closing bodies are large. The valves expand, the action augmented by the expanding keels. The old capsules are still present when the new buds prepare to open (Smith, et al, 1998; iNaturalist).
