ACOTYLEDONES

This article appears in Volume V01, Page 153 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: A10-ADA
ACOTYLEDONES , the name given by
Antoine
  Laurent de
Jussieu
  in 1789 to the lowest class in his Natural
System
  of Botany, embracing flowerless
plants
 , such as ferns, lycopods,
horse
 -tails, mosses, liverworts, sea-weeds, lichens and fungi. The name is derived from the
absence
  of a seed-
leaf
  or cotyledon. Flowering
plants
 
bear
  a seed containing an embryo, with usually one or two cotyledons, or seed-leaves; while in flowerless plants there is no seed and therefore no true cotyledon. The
term
  is synonymous with Cryptogams, by which it was replaced in later systems of classification.
