The subterminal line is lunulate dentate, the teeth white tipped basewards. The terminal black lunules are filled in with paler. The hindwings are straw yellow, with a broad blackish terminal border in the apical half, becoming narrower and subterminal below. The fringe and extreme termen are straw colour.

The surface is smooth, except for very light growth striae and narrow impressed spiral lines. There are a few narrow raised striae between the row of holes and the columellar margin. The inner surface is silvery and iridescent. The columellar plate is flat, wide above, gradually becoming narrower toward its base.

One to three longitudinal veins are present on either side of the midrib, but pinnate veins are indistinct. Tendrils measure up to 35 cm in length. The pitchers of N. macrophylla are robust and almost woody in texture. Rosette and lower pitchers are shortly cylindrical in shape, becoming narrower around the midpoint.

The cylindrical stem is typically widest at the bottom becoming narrower towards the top, or sometimes club shaped. The stem is concolorous with the cap, but sometimes is a little paler or with a yellowish hue. The stem is particularly soft and easily broken, and can become hollow. The flesh is buff.

Paractinoceras is a genus of long straight slender actinocerid nautiloid with siphuncular segments in the early stages like those of Actinoceras, becoming narrower in the later stages of the chambered phragmocone like those in Ormoceras. As with Kochoceras and Floweroceras Paractinoceras is considered a separate genus within the Actinoceratidae, distinct from Actinoceras.

Caladenia flava is a perennial herb, which grows from underground stems. The leaf and flowerstalk appear from these to present several yellow flowers during July – December. The leaf is long for the species size, becoming narrower beyond the middle. Flowers are on a long stalk and are between two and five, usually yellow, occasionally pinkish or white, and speckled with magenta.

They are infundibular throughout, becoming narrower in the basal portion. Wings are reduced to ribs in these aerial pitchers. The peristome is up to 17 mm wide and often somewhat flared at the margins. The peristome ribs are less developed than in lower pitchers, measuring only up to 0.4 mm in height, and spaced only up to 0.5 mm apart.

The length of the shell varies between 7 mm and 12 mm. (Original description) The small shell is elongate and ovate, compressed. it has about six whorls and a rather large smooth protoconch. The transverse sculpture of, on the body whorl, consists of about twenty- six broad flattened waves, strongly flexed, most elevated over the fasciole, and becoming narrower and less prominent anteriorly.

The corridor covers up part of the façade of the Church of Santa Felicità. The corridor then snakes its way over rows of houses in the Oltrarno district, becoming narrower, to finally join the Palazzo Pitti. The full length of the corridor is approximately one kilometre. In 2016 the corridor was closed for safety reasons, to re-open for tourists in 2021.

They may be infundibular throughout or narrowly infundibular in their basal part, becoming narrower and roughly cylindrical above. They are broadest in the middle or in the upper portion. Aerial pitchers are larger than their terrestrial counterparts, growing to 6.7 cm in height by 2 cm in width (although more often around 4 cm by 1.7 cm). The pitcher lid is of the same width as the mouth.

The area of Lebanon is . The country is roughly rectangular in shape, becoming narrower toward the south and the farthest north. Its widest point is , and its narrowest is ; the average width is about . Due to the fact that Lebanon straddles the northwest of the Arabian Plate, it is sometimes geopolitically grouped together with nations with adjacent tectonic proximations such as Syria, Yemen, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the Egyptian Sinai, Israel and the UAE.

Past the swamp, the width of the bay shrinks and continues southward along the shore of the Cape Carancahua community, surrounded by water on three sides. Past the cape, the bay turns to the north and is crossed by Texas State Highway 35. It then heads west and north again, while gradually becoming narrower until it reaches the marsh at the mouth of Carancahua Creek. The East and West Carancahua Creeks, which merge before their confluence, feed the bay.

Retrieved July 7, 2017.Moth Photographers Group at Mississippi State University The wingspan is 12.5–14 mm. The forewings are dark mouse brown, with in the middle of the wing from the base to beyond end of cell a broad spindle-shaped longitudinal white band. Between this and the dorsal edge is a short white longitudinal streak beginning about the middle of the wing and becoming narrower and fainter outwards, losing itself in the dorsal cilia.

The succeeding whorls are transversely sculptured by twelve or thirteen rounded, shouldered ribs. These begin and are largest just before the notch-band, crossing the whorls a little obliquely or even in a directly transverse direction. They become widest at the beginning, becoming narrower and less prominent anteriorly. They fade out or become indistinct on the body whorl on the anterior half, and are less numerous or partially obliterated over the latter part of this whorl in fully developed adults.

At around 1:45 am, the general speed of traffic dropped due to the motorway becoming narrower, reducing from three lanes to two. Two cars, which were overtaking the two coaches at the point where the road narrowed, cut across behind one of the coaches and in front of the other. At the same time, the leading coach braked suddenly due to a slow- moving vehicle ahead. The second coach hit the back of the second car, causing a pile-up.

This peony has grey to brown roots shaped like carrots, about in diameter near the attachment of the stems and gradually becoming narrower towards their tips. It has stiff, erect, hairless, green to purple stems of high with five to seven scales at their base. The leaves have green to purple stalks which are hairless or carry soft hairs. The lower leaves further consist of three sets of mostly three rarely incised ovate to elliptic leaflets, each long and wide.

Approximately from the attachment of the stem to the "toe"-spike, is a structure reminiscent of a windpipe, that has been interpreted as a series of slits in the integument. The attachment of the stem seems to consist of four sets of left and right elements, becoming narrower further from the theca. Further down single and uniform elements of the stem seem comparable to the anatomy of sealily stems. The "instep" of the boot seems to hold both the mouth and the anus.

Lineages differ by the shape of the vertebral and pleural scutes. Females have a more elongated and wider carapace shape than males. Carapace shape changes with growth, with vertebral scutes becoming narrower and pleural scutes becoming larger during late ontogeny. ;Evolutionary implications In combination with proportionally longer necks and limbs, the unusual saddleback carapace structure is thought to be an adaptation to increase vertical reach, which enables the tortoise to browse tall vegetation such as the Opuntia (prickly pear) cactus that grows in arid environments.

The Cenotaph, made entirely from Portland stone, is a pylon on a rectangular plan, with gradually diminishing tiers, culminating in a sculpted tomb chest (the empty tomb) on which is placed a laurel wreath. Its mass decreases with its height, the sides becoming narrower towards the bottom of the coffin than at the top of the base. The base of the cenotaph is in four stages from the top of the steps starting with the plinth, which connects to the base block. The plinth projects from the base block on all four sides.

Section 20 of the Architects Act 1997 mentions "architecture" (subsection (3)(b)) and the "services" of a person enrolled under the Act (subsection (5)). These are not defined by the Act, and it is quite obvious that Parliament has not delegated to the Board the power to define them. In practice, as technology and the building process continue to evolve new specialisms, the concept of architecture can be seen as becoming ever more fluid, extensive and comprehensive, and at the same time becoming narrower while ever more ancillary specialities are identified.

Reconstructed skull and neck, RTM; the crests and the gap in the upper jaw are characteristic features. The shape of the crests is hypothetical, since they are incompletely known The skull of Dilophosaurus was large in proportion to the overall skeleton, yet delicate. The snout was narrow in front view, becoming narrower towards the rounded top. The premaxilla (front bone of the upper jaw) was long and low when seen from the side, bulbous at the front, and its outer surface became less convex from snout to naris (bony nostril).

They are obovate, becoming narrower towards the mouth. They are similar in size to their lower counterparts, reaching 12.5 cm in height by 4.5 cm in width. In aerial pitchers, the broad wings of the lower pitchers are reduced to narrow structures only 1 to 1.5 mm wide, with shorter acuminate fringe elements (≤1.5 mm long) spaced 3 to 7 mm apart. As in lower pitchers, the pitcher mouth is oblique and concave. The peristome is rounded and 3 to 5 mm wide, with a regularly undulate outer margin.

For wavelengths much greater than d, the wavefront is almost spherical (circular, when seen from the side) and the sound level is constant for a variety of such listening positions - the off-axis response of the speaker is almost omnidirectional. As the distance d approaches λ/4, the wavefront starts becoming narrower. At the listening position, the sound level is not the same as it would have been, had it been exactly midway between the drivers. The area where the sound level is constant for a given range of vertical positions (and fixed listening distance) is the lobe.

The spiral sculpture shows four narrow prominent keels, of which the second is peripheral, the third marginates the base, and the fourth is on the base, the interspaces much wider and becoming narrower anteriorly. There are also seven closer even low threads on the base with subequal interspaces. The posterior wide interspaces are sculptured with close-set fine spiral thread. The axial sculpture shows numerous equal and equally spaced arcuate threads, with wide interspaces, which on the upper whorls bead the posterior carina, but later are chiefly visible in the interspaces and extend over the whole shell.

Major expansions to the northeast has been made with one-and two-story townhouses in stages starting in 1980, which still was ongoing in 2006. The separation between Tallboda and the eastern neighboring village Malmskogen is becoming narrower as this expansion continues. With the exception of some rental properties, expansion is made by condominiums and individually owned properties. Tallboda's southwestern part is a small center, built around 1990 with the supermarket Tempo Tallen, postal service, retirement home, gaming kiosk and pizzeria Euro Pizza (previously in the same premises there has been fast food stores and gaming cafe).

A broad and less oblique fascia is found before the middle, narrowed toward and not attaining the dorsal margin, bi-sinuate toward the base. A third fascia, narrower than the last, at a little less than two-thirds the length, slightly oblique, becoming narrower toward the dorsal margin without attaining it. This fascia is further removed from the base at its costal than at the dorsal extremity and there is a long stripe in the middle of the wing extending from the second fascia through the third and somewhat beyond. There are five larger and several very small and indistinct spots around the apex.

The Zacapu shiner is differentiated from the other members of the N. calientis species complex by having 6, rarely 7, branched rays in the anal fin and 8 pelvic fin rays and by normally having 42 lateral line scales. It has a yellowish to light brown body with a dark lateral stripe which widens to form a slightly convex part from near the pectoral fin origin to the dorsal fin origin, becoming narrower and darker towards the rear. There is a dark marking on the caudal peduncle and at the origin of the caudal fin. There are fine markings around the base of the dorsal fin and the head is pigmented, the fins are unpigmented.

For the sake of simplicity, the following assumes two point sources separated by a distance d vertically‡, both radiating into half-space at a certain frequency f. Thus we can express lobing as a function of d and its relation to the wavelength λ. As d becomes significant (or larger) as compared to λ, the acoustic wavefront starts becoming narrower or more directive. The following image shows a simplified representation of how two non-coincident drivers exhibit lobing (the difference between the lobing patterns is greatly exaggerated to demonstrate the effect): Lobing The large black dot is the vertical listening position relative to the centre, at a certain fixed horizontal distance from the speaker.

On the outer aspect of the myocardium is the epicardium which forms part of the pericardium, the sack that surrounds, protects, and lubricates the heart. Within the myocardium, there are several sheets of cardiac muscle cells or cardiomyocytes. The sheets of muscle that wrap around the left ventricle closest to the endocardium are oriented perpendicularly to those closest to the epicardium. When these sheets contract in a coordinated manner they allow the ventricle to squeeze in several directions simultaneously – longitudinally (becoming shorter from apex to base), radially (becoming narrower from side to side), and with a twisting motion (similar to wringing out a damp cloth) to squeeze the maximum possible amount of blood out of the heart with each heartbeat.
