). They consist of a monolayer of epidermal cells covered with a cuticle, like that of the calyx. The epidermal layer is very thin in the distal part, but quite thick at the peduncle. Below the epidermal cells, the structures have a cavity divided in two chambers by a transverse wall; the cavity is filled with tightly packed, acidophilic granules. The mesenchyme of these organs is continuous with that of the calyx (
