It is worthy of note that these modifications occur in the Anakrogynous Jungermanniaceae, which, as we have already seen, are more advanced than the Akrogynous as regards

So far as segmentations offer a basis for argument, the general conclusion may be drawn that the seta and capsule are not always distinct ab initio. The developmental facts suggest that the fertile region may be held to be a residuum left by sterilisation, which has been basifugally progressive : the result of such sterilisation is the region of the seta as it is seen in these plants.
