The head is small and
deflexed with short 11-segmented antennae.
Try to avoid delivery as an OP, as this pulls a much larger diameter
deflexed head through the pelvis and usually results in significant lacerations.
30 cm) simple leaves,
deflexed flowers with conspicuous and well developed sepals, yellow to red corollas, mostly red nectar scales with flag shaped (laterally expanded and obovoid in shape) dorsal threads and large, globose seeds with shallowly reticulate testas (instead of deeply pitted as in Caiophora, Weigend et al., 2004, 2005; Acuna et al.
Pileus 3-9cm wide, convex to hemispherical to flattened; margins straight and flaring to slightly
deflexed, sometimes irregular; pileal veil white, cottony, collapsing with age and finally evanescent; pileus surface moist to viscid, yellowish white to pale yellow to yellowish brown, scales brown colored appressed fibrillose throughout the surface, more prominent towards the margin.
6) with median lobe broadly elliptical, narrowing apical, apex strongly
deflexed, broadly rounded.
In the afternoon, petals became
deflexed until late afternoon, when closure began (Figure 3).
barrelieri from Spain and North Africa, have calyces that are
deflexed downward in fruit (Hedge, 1974), but it is not known if they exhibit hygroscopic movement in association with mericarp release.
Front slightly produced,
deflexed, divided by a shallow medial sulcus.
Diagnosis: This has the claw-like
deflexed compound setae in posterior setigers, as well as an anterior dorsal tooth on the pharynx.

deflexed, two smaller oval-suborbicular, 4-7 x 3.6-5 mm, puberulent, margin ciliated, three larger ovalsuborbicular and oblong-obovate, 7-10 x 6-9 mm, glabrous, margin ciliated; petals almost isomorphic, yellow, base orange-red, oval-flabellate, 17-22 x 15-25 mm; stamens 7, heteromorphic, three largest, 9-11 mm long, four smaller, 6.7-8 mm long, fillets 2.2-6 mm long, anthers 4.2-7 mm long; three staminodes 3.2-4 mm long; ovary pilosulous the laterals seams, 13-14 x 1.3-2 mm, 42-56 ovulated, style 2-2.5 mm long.
In the Johnson's formula, correction was made for station of the head and obesity; but factors like liquor volume, site of placenta,
deflexed head and moulding of the head remained.
The most common identified cause of non-engaged head was
deflexed head in 28(28%) while no cause was found in 45(45%) women.
