Example Sentences

It would be a curious circumstance if all indusiate ferns were to be found reducible to a marginal production of the reproductive apparatus. 

From Project Gutenberg

That the indusium is a special organ, i.e. not an eruption of the cuticle, I am sure; hence it is essential to examine extensively both indusiate and other forms, the precise extension of their veins, etc. at an early period to ascertain if their most diversified situations cannot be reduced to some one type.

From Project Gutenberg
