Evolvulus alsinoides Venation
by Bob Harms  email-here

All E. alsinoides leaves revealed clearly pinnate venation. But often the venation is not visible without clearing (as the 2 on the right above) or transparency scanning (leftmost pair above), as the next image shows. With clearing one can generally see that the venation pattern is pinnate festooned brochidodromous.

EVAL-E77-novenbot
E. alsinoides — Val Verde Co. The same leaf as that shown above after clearing as 'E77', this one without rehydrating/clearing.
