A peduncle is an elongated stalk of tissue. Sessility is the state of not having a peduncle; a sessile mass or structure lacks a stalk. In medicine, a mass such as a cyst or polyp is said to be pedunculated if it is supported by a peduncle. There are in total three types of peduncles in the cerebellum of the human brain, known as superior cerebellar peduncle, middle cerebellar peduncle, and inferior cerebellar peduncle.

The posterior dorsal fin and the anal fin are aligned and are similar in size and shape and located immediately anterior to the caudal peduncle. The pelvic fins consist of spines.
Distinguishing features can also be found in the ilium of the pelvis. In Brachiosaurus, the ischiadic peduncle, a downward projecting extension connecting to the ischium, reaches farther downward than in Giraffatitan. While the latter genus had a sharp notch between the ischiadic peduncle and the back portion of the ilium, this notch is more rounded in Brachiosaurus. On the upper surface of the hind part of the ilium, Brachiosaurus had a pronounced tubercle that is absent in other sauropods.
The leaf veins are prominent, well-spaced and at an angle greater than 45° to the leaf mid-rib.

The preacetabular blade is short and wide, with a massive pubic peduncle, while the postacetabular blade is longer and thinner, with a triangular ischial peduncle. These traits of the ilia differentiate it from more advanced tyrannosauroids such as the tyrannosaurids. Sinotyrannus was among the largest basal tyrannosauroids known, repudiating the previously presumed trend that tyrannosauroids gradually increased in size throughout the Cretaceous period from small basal forms like Dilong to advanced apex predators such as Tyrannosaurus.
The columella is usually more or less folded or toothed near the base.Tryon (1889), Manual of Conchology XI, Academy of Natural Sciences, Philadelphia The central tooth of the radula has a body with broadly expanded supporting wings, a narrowed peduncle or neck, which bears a simple cusp. This peduncle has on each side delicate wings. The lateral teeth number five on each side and have as peculiarity that they increase in size from the inner to the outer one.

The flower buds are arranged on the ends of branchlets on a branched peduncle long, each branch of the peduncle with seven buds on pedicels long.
This produces a visible "notch" in the cerebral peduncle. Because of the fact that a Kernohan's notch is caused by an injury creating pressure on the opposite hemisphere of the brain, it is characterized as a false localizing sign. The Kernohan's notch phenomenon is unique in that it is not only a false localizing sign, but is also ipsilateral or same-sided. The left cerebral peduncle contains motor fibers that cross over to the right side of the body.
The lid measures up to 2 cm in length and 2 cm in width. As in lower pitchers, a single highly developed appendage is located on the underside of the lid.

Dorsal and anal fins short with the anal fin set well back at about 85% from the front of the dorsal fin, the furthest back of all members of the species complex.
The bracts form at the base of the peduncle and are short and rounded with an indented tip, usually only partially obscuring the calyx. The species is most similar to Calystegia occidentalis which can occur in the same region occasionally. However that species differs in longer, more strongly pointed bracts, and the fact that those bracts form several millimeters below the peduncle on the stem. Additionally C. occidentalis generally has more triangular leaves with less distinct lobing.

This process also develops near the upper region of the postacetabular process (posterior expansion of the iliac blade). The pubic peduncle—a robust process in front of the acetabulum—is triangular in shape and expanded from the inner to lateral surfaces. The ischiac peduncle, which is a lesser process located just behind the acetabulum, shows a well-developed tuberosity towards the top surface. When compared, the preacetabular process is much more elongated and developed than the posterior one.

The cerebellothalamic tract or the tractus cerebellothalamicus, is part of the superior cerebellar peduncle. It originates in the cerebellar nuclei, crosses completely in the decussation of the superior cerebellar peduncle, bypasses the red nucleus, and terminates in posterior division of ventral lateral nucleus of thalamus. The ventrolateral nucleus has different divisions and distinct connections, mostly with frontal and parietal lobes. The primary motor cortex and premotor cortex get information from the ventrolateral nucleus projections originating in the interposed nucleus and dentate nuclei.
The superior cerebellar peduncle is mainly an output to the cerebral cortex, carrying efferent fibers via thalamic nuclei to upper motor neurons in the cerebral cortex. The fibers arise from the deep cerebellar nuclei. The middle cerebellar peduncle is connected to the pons and receives all of its input from the pons mainly from the pontine nuclei. The input to the pons is from the cerebral cortex and is relayed from the pontine nuclei via transverse pontine fibers to the cerebellum.

Two species are black, usually with white spots, and lack dark bands on the caudal fin; P. nicoi has a white band at the distal margin of the caudal fin, while P. anthrax does not. P. dumus has a colour pattern consisting of black spots on the head and anterior part of body, while P. tigris has a colour pattern consisting of brown and tan bars on the head and anterior part of body. However, P. dumus and P. tigris may actually both represent more species. In P. dumus, specimens from northern Amazonas have a well-spotted caudal peduncle, those from the Ventuari and Cataniapo Rivers have spots along the mid-line on the caudal peduncle, and those from the Casiquiare have spots combining to form bands on the caudal peduncle.

In the spinal cord, the axons synapse and the secondary neuronal axons decussates and then travel up to the superior cerebellar peduncle where they decussate again. From here, the information is brought to deep nuclei of the cerebellum including the fastigial and interposed nuclei. From the levels of L2 to T1, proprioceptive information enters the spinal cord and ascends ipsilaterally, where it synapses in Clarke's nucleus. The secondary neuronal axons continue to ascend ipsilaterally and then pass into the cerebellum via the inferior cerebellar peduncle.

Ocelli on dorsal fin and caudal peduncle A. ocellatus examples have been reported to grow to about in length and in weight. The wild-caught forms of the species are typically darkly coloured with yellow-ringed spots or ocelli on the caudal peduncle and on the dorsal fin. These ocelli have been suggested to function to limit fin-nipping by piranha (Serrasalmus spp.), which co-occur with A. ocellatus in its natural environment. The species is also able to rapidly alter its colouration, a trait which facilitates ritualised territorial and combat behaviours amongst conspecifics.

The flowers have a slight scent, which is rare for most spuria irises, and they can be up in diameter, and come in shades of violet-blue, violet, purple, or purple-reddish.
The dorsal profile rises evenly but not steeply from tip of snout to the origin of the dorsal fin, then slopes gently ventrally from there to end of caudal peduncle. The ventral profile is horizontal to origin of the anal fin, then slopes dorsally to end of the caudal peduncle. The head is covered with small tubercles with poorly demarcated and indistinct margins, and the body with such tubercles arranged in 5-6 longitudinal rows on each side. The dorsal fin origin is nearer the tip of the snout than caudal flexure.

The first group, the A. ischnosoma species group, includes A. ischnosoma, A. guttatus, A. gyrinus, A. mahakamensis, A. septentrionalis, and A. strigosus; these species have a narrower head, a more slender caudal peduncle, and 39-41 vertebrae. The second group, the A. rugosus species group, includes A. chameleon, A. falcifer, A. pachyderma, and A. rugosus, in which the fish have a deeper caudal peduncle, a broader head, and 35-37 vertebrae. Acrochordonichthys species are cryptically colored.
The posterior external arcuate fibers (dorsal external arcuate fibers or cuneocerebellar tract) take origin in the accessory cuneate nucleus; they pass to the inferior cerebellar peduncle of the same side. The term "cuneocerebellar tract" is also used to describe an exteroceptive and proprioceptive components that take origin in the gracile and cuneate nuclei; they pass to the inferior cerebellar peduncle of the same side. The posterior external arcuate fibers carry proprioceptive information from the upper limbs and neck. It is an analogue to the dorsal spinocerebellar tract for the upper limbs.

The base colour is overlaid with a pattern of small to medium sized dark irregularly shaped blotches with many joining up to form uneven vertical bands.
Flower of A. sericeus, before (left) and after (right) anthesis Unusually for members of the family Proteaceae, Adenanthos flowers are solitary, rather than clustered together in large showy inflorescences. In fact, morphologically speaking, the Adenanthos flower does occur in an inflorescence, but one in which the number of flowers has been reduced to one, leaving only a few vestigial clues to the elaborate structure from which it derived. Each flower is positioned at the end of a short peduncle. The peduncle has minute basal bracts at its base, and sometimes at its midpoint, providing evidence of the loss of some lateral axes.

The Calitor grape gets its name from the characteristic "twist" of the peduncle stem holding the grape cluster that makes a near right angle bent with the cane. Calitor is a late ripening grape variety that can be very productive and high yielding if not kept in check by winter pruning or green harvesting during the growing season. The vine tends to produce large clusters of big berries that hang from the vine with a near right angle bent of the peduncle stem that attaches the bunch to the cane of the grapevine. It is this "twisted stalk" look that gives rise to the grape's name and several of its synonyms.
Kernohan's notch phenomenon is a result of the compression of the cerebral peduncle, which is part of the mesencephalon, against the tentorium cerebelli due to transtentorial herniation. This produces ipsilateral hemiparesis or hemiplegiaMoon, 2006 The skull is an incompressible closed space with a limited volume (Monro-Kellie Doctrine). When there is increased cranial pressure in the brain, a shift in the brain forms towards the only opening of the skull, the foramen magnum. Thus, when an increase of pressure in a hemisphere of the brain exists, the cerebral peduncle on the opposite hemisphere is pushed up against the tentorium, which separates the posterior fossa from the middle fossa.

The pitcher lid is very narrowly triangular with the margins and apex curved downwards. In aerial pitchers, the wings are reduced to ribs. Nepenthes fusca produces a compact racemose inflorescence. The peduncle is up to 6 cm long, while the rachis is not known to exceed 10 cm.
This plant is commonly known in the local Afrikaans language as "Vetstingel" ("Fat-stalk"). This name, like its Latin species name "robusta", refers to its thick peduncle. Another common name is "Bokverwurg" ("Goat-choaker"), on account of the extremely hard, sharp leaves on its stems.S.Molteno (2018) Prince Albert's Astroloba.
The leaves have 9-13 pairs of secondary veins emanating from their midribs. Its bristly petioles are 5-25 millimeters long. Inflorescences are pendulous and are axillary or emerge beneath leaves. The inflorescences are organized as panicles of about 6 flowers on a 3-5 centimeter long peduncle.

Dalibarda repens is a herbaceous plant with simple leaves, and hairy stems. It is the only species in the genus Dalibarda. It has both sterile and fertile flowers. The sterile flowers are much less numerous than the fertile ones, have five white petals and are borne atop a peduncle.
The fruiting heads develop on peduncles. A peduncle bears 25 to 50 trilobed bracts, arranged helically, and each bract is paired with a fruiting head. Fruiting heads are long and wide, with an elliptical profile. Development of the lobes varies notably: central lobes are long while side lobes are .
It has oblong-ovate basal leaves that are long. The leaves are pinnately dissected and the lobes are irregularly rounded. The inflorescence is more or less scapose, meaning it has a long peduncle that comes from the ground level that has bracts. The bracts are round and awn-tipped.
Blooms first appear in early summer and continue into early fall. Fruit: A shiny dark purple berry held in racemose clusters on pink pedicels with a pink peduncle. Pedicels without berries have a distinctive rounded five part calyx. Fruits are round with a flat indented top and bottom.

Antennae: segments of the peduncle elongate, first extending considerably beyond the lateral margins of the genae, second about one-fifth longer than the first.
The stem (peduncle) of the flower spike (inflorescence) is held within the leaves. The flowers are white. The pale green bracts which subtend the flowers are more or less the same length as the calyx. Each flower has the typical structure for Roscoea (see the diagrams in that article).
P. yunnanensis also has more pelvic fin rays (5 vs. 3-4), a shorter adipose fin base, a deeper and longer caudal peduncle, more teeth in the premaxillary tooth band (18-22 vs. 16-18) that are divided into two partially connected patches instead of two isolated patches.

Some apple russet around the peduncle. Flesh is crispy with an excellent and pronounced flavor, a good balance of sweet and acid. It blossoms mid season and harvests in mid to late October. The apple will keep fresh until late March as it has generally good disease resistance.
After flowering they begin to fade away, before regrowing in spring. It has a slender stem or peduncle, that can grow up to between tall. The flowers are high above the foliage. The stem has 1 green, lanceolate, membranous, spathes (leaf of the flower bud), which is long.
It is small and colourful, growing to between 40 and 55 mm. The body tapers to a narrow caudal peduncle. Much of the sides are covered by a lateral band dark in colour. The caudal, dorsal and anal fins are yellow or red-orange with black marginal rays.
The peduncle carrying the spikes is up to 1 cm long. The flowers have a long, variegated, reddish flower tube, which is slightly curved. It has six, 5–6 mm long petals which are green and turned back. The fruit is an ovoid berry, green, with persistent sepals.
There is usually no stem but the inflorescence arises on a stemlike peduncle up to about 15 centimeters tall. The inflorescence is a compound umbel bearing many tiny white flowers with dark anthers. The fruit is an ovoid body a few millimeters long lined with prominent longitudinal ribs.
The panicle is elliptic, open, inflorescenced and is long and broad with long peduncle. Spikelets are solitary with pedicelled fertile spikelets that carry 5–7 fertile florets. The main panicle branches are going far up and are long. It also have a barren and scaberulous rhachilla that is long.
A peduncle throw, also known as peduncling, is a surfacing behaviour unique to humpback whales. During this the humpback converts its forward momentum into a crack-the-whip rotation, pivoting with its pectorals as it drives its head downward and thrusts its entire fluke and peduncle (the muscular rear portion of the torso) out of the water and sideways, before crashing into the water with terrific force. Peduncling takes place among the focal animals (female, escort, challenging male) in a competitive group, apparently as an aggressive gesture. Possibilities include escorts fending off a particular challenging male, females who seem agitated with an escort, or an individual not comfortable with a watching boat's presence.
Tsuga mertensiana foliage and cones The pollen cones grow solitary from lateral buds. They are 3–5(–10) mm long, ovoid, globose, or ellipsoid, and yellowish-white to pale purple, and borne on a short peduncle. The pollen itself has a saccate, ring-like structure at its distal pole, and rarely this structure can be more or less doubly saccate. The seed cones are borne on year-old twigs and are small ovoid-globose or oblong-cylindric, ranging from 15–40 mm long, except in T. mertensiana, where they are cylindrical and longer, 35–80 mm in length; they are solitary, terminal or rarely lateral, pendulous, and are sessile or on a short peduncle up to 4 mm long.
Amaryllis belladonna, its scape emerging directly from the bulb immediately underground The modern trend is towards usefully distinguishing the definition of "scape" from those of related, but more general, terms such as peduncle and inflorescence. It now is rarely used for such objects as stems or inflorescences in general. However, it is not easy to find coherent and fully general definitions. Typical examples from authoritative online sources include the following: "a peduncle arising at or beneath the surface of the ground in an acaulescent plant... broadly: a flower stalk...", "a leafless stalk in plants that arises from a rosette of leaves and bears one or more flowers..." and several more very similar.
The word scape (Latin scapus, from Greek σκᾶπος), as used in botany, is fairly vague and arbitrary; various sources provide divergent definitions. Some older usages simply amount to a stem or stalk in general, but modern formal usage tends to favour the likes of "A long flower stalk rising directly from the root or rhizome", or "a long, naked, or nearly naked, peduncle, rising direct from the base of a plant, whether 1- or many-fid."Chittenden, Fred J. Ed., Royal Horticultural Society Dictionary of Gardening, Oxford 1951 Other authorities refer to the scape rising directly from the ground, without morphological analysis. For example: "A leafless floral axis or peduncle arising from the ground, as in Cyclamen".
Superimposed on this pale background are nine broad black bands, narrowing slightly towards the belly; the first band passes through the eye, the second extends from the front of the dorsal fin to the base of the pectoral fins, and the eight and ninth bands are on the caudal peduncle. On either side of the peduncle is a small, retractable spine. The only fish with which it is likely to be confused is the "convict tang" (Acanthurus triostegus); that species has a yellower background colour and just six vertical, rather more slender black bands. It is more widely distributed, and even within the zebra tang's restricted range, the convict tang is the common of the two.
Corymbia trachyphloia is a tree that typically grows to a height of and forms a lignotuber. It has rough, brown and greyish bark on the trunk, often also on the larger branches. Young plants and coppice regrowth have lance-shaped, glossy green leaves that are paler on the lower surface, long, wide and petiolate, the petiole is attached to the underside of the leaf blade. Adult leaves are usually glossy dark green, paler on the lower surface, narrow lance-shaped to lance-shaped, long and wide, tapering to a petiole long, The flower buds are arranged on a branched peduncle long, each branch of the peduncle with seven buds on pedicels long.
Uprooted sea pen with the bulbous peduncle in view Pierre's armina feeding on purple sea pen Sea pen at Vancouver Aquarium As octocorals, sea pens are colonial animals with multiple polyps (which look somewhat like miniature sea anemones), each with eight tentacles. Unlike other octocorals, however, a sea pen's polyps are specialized to specific functions: a single polyp develops into a rigid, erect stalk (the rachis) and loses its tentacles, forming a bulbous "root" or peduncle at its base. The other polyps branch out from this central stalk, forming water intake structures (siphonozooids), feeding structures (autozooids) with nematocysts, and reproductive structures. The entire colony is fortified by calcium carbonate in the form of spicules and a central axial rod.
The yellow Shiner is a small fish with a deep, broad body which is at its deepest just in front of the origin of the dorsal fin and which has an extended caudal peduncle which is twice as long as it is deep. It has a brown back with a silver belly, the difference between the two being quite marked, although there is a subtle dark band running from the snout to the caudal peduncle which is darker at its ends. The females have deeper bodies and are darker than the males. It has a whitish chin and the caudal fin and dorsal fin are dusky in color while the other fins are lighter.
Similarly, a white eye blaze is usually present on the right side, but rarely on the left. The rostral saddle likewise shows asymmetrical coloration, extending further on the right side than on the left and having a more well defined posterior right margin; the left, meanwhile, often has a diffuse posterior margin. A white peduncle blaze extends up from the ventral field, being bordered on each side by light gray double caudal chevrons, which extend down from the peduncle field and flank patch, respectively. A variably shaped, thin, light gray line, called the nape streak (analogous to the "shoulder streak" or "chevron" of the northern form), extends laterally down the back between the pectoral fins.
Deep dissection of brain-stem showing decussation The decussation of superior cerebellar peduncle is the crossing of fibers of the superior cerebellar peduncle across the midline, and is located at the level of the inferior colliculi. It comprises the cerebellothalamic tract, which arises from the dentate nucleus (therefore also known as dentatothalamic tract), as well as the cerebellorubral tract, which arises from the globose and emboliform nuclei and project to the contralateral red nucleus to eventually become the rubrospinal tract. It is also known as horseshoe-shaped commissure of Wernekinck. It is important as an anatomical landmark, as lesions above it cause contralateral cerebellar signs, while lesions below it cause ipsilateral cerebellar signs.
The leaflets range from in length. The herb's inflorescence is axillary, meaning it rises from the same node as a leaf rather than from the end of a stem. The peduncle of the plant is covered with the same white trichomes as the stem. Its flower petals are a pale yellow.
The flower buds are arranged in leaf axils in groups of seven on an unbranched peduncle long, the individual buds on pedicels long. Mature buds are oval, and about wide with a hemispherical operculum. The fruit is a woody, oval capsule and wide with the valves protruding but easily broken.

Adults typically measure SL. They do not have rostral barbels but might have maxillary barbels. Juveniles have a colour pattern consisting of three black bars on body; this persists to adult stage in some species. Adults have a black, horizontally elongate blotch on the caudal peduncle .Found in western ghats.
Both have straight leading margins and somewhat angular apexes. The space between the dorsal fins is greater than the space between the second dorsal and caudal fins. The caudal peduncle is flattened and expanded laterally to form keels. The lower lobe of the caudal fin is markedly larger than the upper.
The peduncle is slender and warty, the pedicels long. The triangular, narrow calyx lobes are smooth on the outside with a stiff apex.

The dentatothalamic tract (or dentatorubrothalamic tract) is a tract which originates in the dentate nucleus and follows the ipsilateral superior cerebellar peduncle, decussating later on and reaching the contralateral red nucleus and the contralateral thalamus.Operative Neurosurgery: Dentatorubrothalamic tract . The term "dentatorubrothalamocortical" is sometimes used to emphasize termination in the cerebral cortex.
The panicle itself is open and pyramidal, and is long. The nodes are whorled and are long. Inflorence is comprised out of 60–120 fertile spikelets with long peduncle, which is also glabrous. The spikelets themselves are made out of 1–2 fertile florets and are diminished at the apex.
The densely leafed peduncle is 10 to 25 centimeters long. The 18 to 23-fold flowers are on a 2 to 4 millimeters long, glandular-fluffy flower stem. Her sepals are glandular- fluffy. The deep yellow, reverse lanceolate petals are 6 to 7 millimeters long and 1 to 1.5 millimeters wide.
The peduncle can be almost spineless, or it can be covered with black spines up to long. The rachis bears 49 to 60 rachillae, which are the smaller branches which themselves bear the flowers. Male flowers are orange, while female flowers are light green. The mature fruit have not been described.

Those of Crassula pubescens subsp. pubescens are oval A small (up to 40 cm), shrubby perennial, with delicate, erect stems and pubescent (velvety) leaves that are 1-3 cm long. The peduncle emerges above the leaves of the rosette.
The red-pea gall or red currant gall develops as a chemically induced distortion arising from the underside of the mid-rib of a vein on Quercus species and it is attached by a short stalk or peduncle. The red-wart gall is the sexual phase of the same species.
When adults are near spawning, they have purple blotchy streaks near the caudal peduncle, darker towards the tail. Spawning males typically grow an elongated snout or kype, their lower fins become tipped with white and they have enlarged teeth. Some researchers speculate these characteristics are used to compete for mates.
The groups are on a peduncle long, individual flowers on a pedicel of a similar length. The four sepals are triangular to egg-shaped, long and wide, overlapping at their bases. The four petals are long and have a few short, soft hairs. The eight stamens have a few soft hairs.

Species of Costa Rica The maximum recorded body length is 5 mm or 6 mm.Welch J. J. (2010). "The “Island Rule” and Deep-Sea Gastropods: Re- Examining the Evidence".
The flowers are white, sometimes pale pink and are arranged in leaf axils, mainly in groups of between three and fourteen or more. The groups are borne on a peduncle long. The four sepals are triangular to broadly egg-shaped, about long and wide. The four petals are long with their bases overlapping.
The petiole is between ; pseudostipules present or absent, if present then present on most nodes. Inflorescences range between in size, with 8–30 flowers, ebracteate or bracteate on most nodes from the base. Peduncle is between ; pedicels are between , articulated in the upper half. Flowers with the calyx tube are minute, approximately between .
It is branched to three orders, with four 'partial inflorescences', the longest of these growing to some long. The rachis bracts are loosely tubular. This species has no peduncular bracts. The peduncle is wide at its base; the rachillae are long, and are thin, green-red in colour, and with a tomentose indumentum.
It has a stout, thick rhizome, that is between 8–20 mm thick. The roots are sometimes described as adventitious (in an unusual place). It has linear, smooth, acuminate (tapering to a long point) long and 6–18 mm wide leaves. The leaves can be as long or longer than the peduncle.
Inflorescence: Interfoliar, branched to 2 (3 in a few cases) orders, with the basal part within the closed sheath, the prophyll hidden and the peduncular bract spreading from the top of the sheath; peduncle 68–123 cm. long, distally 9 x 5 cm. in diam., green, glabrous, curved outside the sheath; prophyll c.
The describers of Nhandumirim tested its relations using two phylogenetic analyses focused around the origin of dinosaurs. The first one, created previously by Cabreira et al. (2016), considered it the basalmost theropod, as the sister taxon to neotheropods. This is supported by a wide ischiadic peduncle and several traits of the tibia.
There are two vertical white bands, one behind the eye and one above the anus, and the caudal peduncle is white. The snout is orange or pinkish. The dorsal and caudal fins are orange-yellow, and the caudal fin is generally lighter in tone than the rest of the body, sometimes becoming whitish.
The membrane between the spines is notably notched. The caudal fin is rounded. The colour of the body is reddish to greenish- brown, with each scale on the body having a small white or pale blue spot. Sometimes 4 irregular dark vertical bars are visible, with a 5th bar on the caudal peduncle.
The cyathium contains minute staminate and pistillate flowers lacking petals. Male flowers terminate the peduncle with capitate clusters. The flowers consists of 4 tiny golden green upwardly bent sepals, acute to blunt in shape, and many stamens. Female flowers consist of minute green sepals, a hairy tri-locular ovary, and three fringed styles.
The spur (≤1.4 cm long) is flattened and has a bifurcate apex. Only the female inflorescence of N. naga is known. It is a raceme measuring up to 14.5 cm in length, of which the peduncle makes up 7 cm and the rachis 7.5 cm. Partial peduncles are one- or two-flowered.
The leaf sheaths on the upper stem are swollen. The stalk of the inflorescence (peduncle) is 20-100 mm long and there are often several at a node. The axis of the inflorescence is 0.6-1.2 m by 0.1-0.3 m. The 10-30 stalks of individual flowers (pedicels) are 0.5 mm long.
Adults are an orange-brown colour with two white bars with black edging encircling the body. The first bar is located on the head behind the eyes and may be thin and broken. The second bar is on the body below the dorsal fin. The caudal peduncle and caudal fin are white.

The rectangular petiole lacks a peduncle between it and the mesosoma. The male is smaller than the gyne, with an estimated body length of . The eyes are round and the gena only half as long as the eyes are wide. The thirteen segmented antennae have a filifrom morphology and the scape is short.
The aerial roots seem like fine hairs. The flowers develop one at a time at the base of the leaf. They are borne on a slender peduncle, originating from the base of the back of the leaf. The long dorsal sepal is erect and ends in a somewhat thicker club- shaped tip.
There is no anal fin. The caudal peduncle is robust and lacks notches at the caudal fin origins. The asymmetrical caudal fin has an indistinct lower lobe and an upper lobe without a notch in the trailing margin. The skin is covered by a layer of foul-smelling mucus several millimeters thick.
The acoustic tubercle is a nuclei on the end of the cochlear nerve. The cochlear nerve is lateral to the root of the vestibular nerve. Its fibers end in two nuclei: one, the accessory nucleus, lies immediately in front of the inferior peduncle; the other, the acoustic tubercle, somewhat lateral to it.

The shrub has a terminal inflorescence which is approximately 15–30 mm long. It is panicle-like and maintains a hemispheric shape. Holding the inflorescence and providing it support is a long stem, known as peduncle. It is typically 26–48 mm in length, usually with a few reduced leaves near the base.
The Palmetto Spring 1997, pp 12-15. Most species are terrestrial, (the exception being T. malpighiarum) and lacking pseudobulbs (with the exception of T. bulbosa), with rigid, linear, terete or triquetrous leaves and a terminal inflorescence consisting of a slender few- to several- flowered peduncle. Pollinia eight, 4 larger and four smaller.
Stebbinsoseris heterocarpa is variable in morphology. In general, it is an annual herb with a basal rosette of large leaves. The inflorescence arises on a tall peduncle bearing a solitary flower head. The head is lined in hairless phyllaries and contains many ray florets, often over 100, in shades of yellow or white.
Girella zebra has a moderately short and deep, compressed, oval body with a relatively thin caudal peduncle. It has a small head with a bulging forehead and small eyes. The mouth is small, not extending to the level of the front of the eye. The maxilla are hidden beneath the preorbital bones.
Corymbia ferruginea is a straggly tree that typically grows to a height of and forms a lignotuber. Young plants and coppice regrowth have more or less sessile, rusty green, hairy, broadly lance-shaped to egg-shaped or elliptical leaves that are long and wide. The leaves in the crown of the tree are juvenile leaves that are the same shade of dull green on both sides, with brown hairs along the veins, broadly lance-shaped to egg-shaped or elliptical, long and wide and sessile or on a petiole up to long. The flower buds are arranged on the ends of branchlets of a branched, densely hairy, rusty brown peduncle long, each branch of the peduncle with three or seven buds.
Corymbia ellipsoidea is a tree that typically grows to a height of and forms a lignotuber. It has red-brown over dull, white to cream or grey tessellated bark that is persistent on the trunk, reddish, scaly or flaky bark that is shed in small polygonal flakes on the larger branches, and smooth grey, pink or cream-coloured bark on the thinnest branches. Adult leaves are the same dull, grey-green colour on both sides, linear to narrow lance-shaped, lance-shaped or curved, long and wide, tapering to a narrow, flattened petiole long. The flowers are borne on the ends of the branchlets on a thin, branched peduncle long, each branch of the peduncle with three or seven buds on thin pedicels long.
Unlike the V-shaped mandibular symphysis of Luoyanggia, Nankangia and other oviraptorosaurs have a U-shaped mandibular symphysis. Although Nankangia and Jiangxisaurus possess similar lower jaws, the medial margin of the humerus is more curved medially in Nankangia than it is in Jiangxisaurus. Based on its phylogenetic position, Nankangia displays five other possible autapomorphies, including an anteriorly projecting acromion, separated anterior and greater trochanters, dorsoventral extension of the pubic peduncle that is deeper than the ischial peduncle, and the lack of a downturned symphyseal portion of the dentary. The latter trait is shared with the coeval Ganzhousaurus and Jiangxisaurus, suggesting a primarily herbivorous diet, whereas Banji and another unnamed oviraptorid from the same formation may have been more carnivorous, as they bear a downturned mandibular symphysis.
This is a form of a monochasium where the lateral branches arise alternately on opposite sides of the false axis. There are typically two cincinni present, with the lower cincinnus bearing 2 to 4 flowers, while the upper cincinnus has one to several flowers. The upper cincinnus is generally exerted on specimens with larger spathes, but it may be included in specimens with smaller spathes. The upper cincinnus bears only male flowers and has a longer peduncle, while the lower cincinnus bears bisexual flowers on a shorter peduncle. The pedicels supporting single flowers, and later the fruits, are thick and curved and measure about 3 to 5 mm. The membranous sepals are inconspicuous at only 3 to 4 mm in length.
It is a dwarf plant, that has a stem (or peduncle) that can grow up to between long. The stem is hidden by 1–2 sheathing leaves. The stems have 3–4 spathes (leaves of the flower bud), that are long. They are greenish tinted purplish, partially membranous, with a hyaline (clear and translucent) margin.
The stem (peduncle) of the flower spike is hidden by the leaf sheaths. At the base of the flower spike there is a small bract, 3–10 mm long. Flowers open in succession and are purple or lilac in colour. Each flower has the typical structure for Roscoea (see the diagrams in that article).

The inflorescence consists of a -long peduncle and -long rachis, off of which branches between eight and 39 rachillae long.
There are usually many stemlike inflorescences growing erect to a maximum height around 18 centimeters. Atop the peduncle of the inflorescence is a dense cylindrical or somewhat conical spike of several tiny flowers and bracts. The spike is very woolly. Native Americans (Navajo, Pueblo, Hopi) also used this as a medicinal and ceremonial plant.
Nepenthes izumiae has a racemose inflorescence up to 18 cm long, of which the peduncle constitutes up to 10 cm and the rachis up to 8 cm. Flowers are borne solitarily on pedicels (≤5 mm long) that lack bracts. Tepals are ovate and up to 6 mm long. Fruits reach 15 mm in length.

The inflorescence is a webbed umbel of yellow flowers borne on a peduncle up to half a meter tall.
The fish will grow in length up to 9.8 centimetres (3.9 in). This species has pronounced sexual dimorphism. The dorsal and pectoral fins of males reach, or almost reach, the caudal peduncle, and well-developed odontodes are inserted in fleshy tissue on a large area on the sides of the snout in fully grown males.
Rhytisma fulvum is a zooxanthellate species and has two different colour morphs, yellowish-brown and grey. There is no taxonomic difference between these forms. It is an encrusting species forming sheets over the substrate which may mesh together. The polyps are small and packed together in rows, each raised on a cone-shaped peduncle.
It has also two black ocellus: the first one on top part of its caudal peduncle and the second one in the middle of its dorsal fin. A black spot occurs on the first rays of the dorsal fin. Juveniles and females have in common an orange anal fin. Mature male are quite different.
Thus, if you have a right hemisphere trans-tentorial herniation, it causes a Kernohan's notch in the left cerebral peduncle which results in right-sided motor impairment. Therefore, you get, paradoxically, impairment of motor function on the same side of the body as the herniation which caused the Kernohan's notch on the controlateral side.
The peduncle is approximately 7.5 cm long, 4 mm wide at the base, and 3 mm wide at the top. The rachis is gradually attenuate and 10 to 15 cm long. Lower partial peduncles are about 12 mm long, the upper ones being slightly shorter. All are two-flowered and do not possess a bract.

USA National Phenology Network Botany Primer. USA-NPN Education and Engagement Series 2015-001. www.usanpn.org.
Inflorescences are described by many different characteristics including how the flowers are arranged on the peduncle, the blooming order of the flowers and how different clusters of flowers are grouped within it. These terms are general representations as plants in nature can have a combination of types. These structural types are largely based on natural selection.
Eucalyptus leptophleba, commonly known as Molloy red box or Molloy box, is a species of tree that is endemic to Queensland. It has rough, fissured bark on the trunk and branches, lance-shaped or curved adult leaves, flowers buds on a branching peduncle on the ends of branchlets, white flowers and cup-shaped to barrel-shaped fruit.
Taractes rubsecens (knifetail pomfret) is a species of pomfret of the family Bramidae. T. rubescens is closely related, and quite similar, to Taractes asper, but adults can most easily be distinguished by the bony keel present on the caudal peduncle. In fact, this bony keel is unique to Taractes rubescens and will distinguish it from all other bramids.

Noradrenergic cell group A7 is a group of cells fluorescent for norepinephrine that is located in the pontine reticular formation ventral to the superior cerebellar peduncle of the pons in rodentsDahlstrom A; Fuxe K (1964). "Evidence for the existence of monoamine-containing neurons in the central nervous system". Acta Physiologica Scandinavica 62:1-55. and in primates.
The stem (peduncle) of the flower spike may either be hidden by the leaf sheaths or protrude. One to three flowers open together and may be of various colours: purple, violet or white. The bracts which subtend the flowers are 4–6.5 cm long. Each flower has the typical structure for Roscoea (see the diagrams in that article).
They grow in the spring and then fade after the summer. It has a slender stem or peduncle, that can grow up to between tall.James Cullen, Sabina G. Knees, H. Suzanne Cubey (Editors) The stems carry the flowers high above the foliage. The stems hold terminal (top of stem) flowers, blooming in spring, between March and April.
The size and shape of the leaves vary greatly, making this an important feature for classifying and distinguishing cowpea varieties. Another distinguishing feature of cowpeas is the long peduncles, which hold the flowers and seed pods. One peduncle can support four or more seed pods. Flower colour varies through different shades of purple, pink, yellow, and white and blue.
The anal fin is also long and the pelvic fins are in front of the pectorals. The caudal peduncle is very short and the caudal fin is rounded. The skin is slimy and the scales are not easy to see. The dorsal surface is generally brownish with sometimes some irregular darker blotches at the posterior end.

The anal fin lobe is bright yellow, with the remainder of the fin ranging from golden to dusky, while the underside of the caudal peduncle often being yellow in adults. The caudal fin itself is also golden to dusky, with the lower lobe often brighter yellow than the upper, with both the lobes often having a black trailing edge.
It has an oval (in cross-section), thick stem or peduncle,Kelly Norris that can grow up to between tall. Occasionally, it can reach up to tall. It has 1–2 short, 1 cm long, branches (or pedicels). The branching habit distinguishes it from Iris albicans (another white flowering tall bearded iris), which does not have branches.

The carapace shows two conspicuous, longitudinal rows of forward-directed spines. The peduncle, the base segment of the antenna, is particularly stout. The pink spiny lobster may attain an age of at least 21 years.
There is usually a single flower to each stem (peduncle), with six white tepals, 10–11 mm long, carried on a stalk (pedicel) 5–11 mm long. The flower bud is enclosed in a spathe that is divided into two segments. The style is slightly longer than the six stamens. The smooth black seeds are 2–3 mm long.
Acis nicaeensis is a bulbous perennial, growing up to 18 cm tall, although often less. It generally has a tufted growth habit, with thin leaves appearing before the flowers. The flowers have white tepals, 8–12 mm long with sharply pointed tips. There is usually only one flower per flowering stem (peduncle), although there can be up to three.
The leaves are composed of several pairs of leaflets, each leaflet oval in shape and usually divided into lobes, sometimes deeply, the lobes becoming narrow, linear, or fingerlike. The inflorescence is a spikelike dense cluster of up to 50 flowers held erect on a tall, naked peduncle. The flower has four green sepals and no petals.
It has a flowering stem or peduncle, that can grow up to between tall. It is normally tall. The stems are leafless. The stem has 3 or 4, thin, lanceolate, spathes (leaves of the flower bud), they are (scarious) membranous, and semi-transparent.James Cullen, Sabina G. Knees, H. Suzanne Cubey (Editors) They are long, and 1.5–2 cm wide.
Then the fibers decussate and form the middle cerebellar peduncle, terminating in the cerebellar cortex as mossy fibers. This pathway transmits signals that inform the cerebellum about the movement in progress and the upcoming movement. This helps the continuous adjustment of motor activity. The initiation of the movement is relayed to cerebellum via the corticoreticulocerebellar pathway.
Frontal lobe ataxia is often associated with damage to the frontopontocerebellar tract (Arnold's bundle) that connects the frontal lobe to the cerebellum. This pathway normally sends information from the cortical regions to the cerebellum, particularly information used to initiate planned movement.David McDougal; Dave Van-Lieshout; John Harting. “Pontine Nuclei and Middle Cerebellar Peduncle” Medical Neurosciences 731.
This species grows to an average length of and a weight of . Compared to other members of the Salvelinus genus, it has a deeper body that is more laterally compressed, a shorter caudal peduncle and larger scales.

They have pale bluish grey anal and pelvic fins which have irregular yellow spotting. The caudal fin is dark red with a yellow or lit blue-grey rear margin. When breeding the pinkish red scale margins on the flanks of the males intensify tog scarlet and the yellow spot in the scale centres of the scales becomes darker, they also develop an irregular, diffuse, mid-lateral white band which starts to the rear of the gill cover and gradually becomes broader as it reaches the tail, this band is widest above the anal fin where it covers the upper half of the base of the caudla fin and the caudal peduncle creating an obvious white oval spot on the upper part of the caudal peduncle. This white band has also observed on territorial males.
The part of the hip that juts out to attach to the ischium, the ischial peduncle, projects farther out than the pubic peduncle, which causes the hip-joint to be farther down on the back-underside of the hip. The iliac crests, on the other side of the hip from the ischium and pubic bone, are thin compared to the hip-joint area, respectively in thickness. The fibula, on the outside portion of the lower leg below the knee, decreases in width from top to bottom and is slightly concave. Similar to Ceratosaurus, the second metatarsal bone which connects the ankle bone to the second toe, is robust, has an oval-shaped and slightly concave joint between it and the ankle, and the width does not decrease as it gets nearer the toes.
This broadens to form a light gray shoulder patch above the flippers. Like common and dwarf minkes, they have two light gray to whitish swaths, called the thorax and flank patches, the former running diagonally up from the axilla and diagonally down again to form a triangular intrusion into the dark gray of the thorax and the latter rising more vertically along its anterior edge and extending further dorsally before gradually sloping posteriorly to merge with the white of the ventral side of the caudal peduncle. A dark gray, roughly triangular thorax field separates the two, while a narrower dark gray shoulder infill separates the thorax patch from the shoulder patch. Two light gray, forward directed caudal chevrons extend from the dark gray field above, forming a whitish peduncle blaze between them.

Rhabdosomes, rod-shaped bodies found in the cytoplasm (approximately 3 µm in length and 0.25 µm), have been observed in Ornithocercus species. They’re thought to function in prey capture as trichocysts although no signs of emission have ever been observed. The observation of a cytosome with a microtubular strand was used as evidence of potential food uptake via the peduncle.

There is debate as to the placement of Lesothosaurus as a sister group to Genasauria as or as a basal member of Genasauria. Sereno (1986) argues that Lesothosaurus does not contain the defining Genasaurian synapomorphies of a medial offset of the maxillary dentition, a sprout-shaped mandibular symphysis, moderately sized coronoid process, and an edentulous (without teeth) anterior portion of the premaxilla, and a pubic peduncle of the ilium that is less robust than the ischial peduncle. Butler (2011) argues that the synapomorphies that should exclude Lesothosaurus from Genasauria have been described in Lesothosaurus specimens. Butler writes “The position of Lesothosaurus within Neornithischia is supported by three unequivocal characters: reduction of the forelimb to less than 40% of the hind-limb length, presence of a dorsal groove on the ischium, and a strongly reduced, splint-like metatarsal one.” The following two cladograms illustrate the two opinions.

It is speculatively able to stop signals, ending transmission of unimportant info. The thalamus relays info between pons (cerebellum link), motor cortices, and insula. Insula is also heavily connected to motor cortices; insula is likely where balance is likely brought into perception. The oculomotor nuclear complex refers to fibers going to tegmentum (eye movement), red nucleus (gait (natural limb movement)), substantia nigra (reward), and cerebral peduncle (motor relay).
Forstera and its closely allied sister genus Phyllachne have often been regarded as the most plesiomorphic genera in their family. Characteristics that this genus shares with Phyllachne include apically fused thecae that form a single-celled curved anther and the epigynous nectaries. Forstera can be distinguished from Phyllachne by its long peduncle (absent in Phyllachne) and the cushion plant habit of Phyllachne.Laurent, N., Bremer, B., Bremer, K. (1998).
The flowers are arranged in leaf axils and on the ends of branchlets in groups of between three and twelve on a peduncle long, the individual flowers on a pedicel long. The four sepals are triangular, long and hairless. The four petals are white to pale pink, long with a few soft hairs. The eight stamens are usually hairy and the stigma is about the same width as the style.
Lepas anserifera has a shell or capitulum enclosed in six white plates supported by a tough, flexible, orange stalk or peduncle. The capitulum is about long and the stalk a similar length. The limy plates are thick and sculptured and are in close contact with each other. The largest plates, the pair of scuta at the stalk end, are quadrangular with longitudinal furrows and a smooth umbonal area.
