Description

Culm-diameter 1-2 mm, wall very large, radius of culm in relation to wall thickness approximately 1: 0.75. Outline triangular, obtusely. Culm-center hollow and surrounded by many large thin-walled, not lignified cells. Epidermis cells inside thin, peripheral thicker-walled (lignified). Guard cells externally rounded off. Large vascular bundles arranged in 2-3 peripheral rows. Chlorenchyma in round, oval, square or rectangular groups. Sclerenchyma belt absent. Groups of sclerenchyma square or rectangular. Vascular bundles collateral closed. Sclerenchymatic sheath around vascular bundles bilateral, large at both radial ends. Vessels arrangement in vascular bundles in lateral position. Largest vessel in the bundle 20-50 μm. Cavities (intercellulars) between parenchyma cells absent. Cavities (intercellulars) between parenchyma-cells round, oval or radial. Distinct cavities (intercellulars) in the protoxylem area of vascular bundles. Crystals absent.
