acuminate

Forty percent have acute distal ends and 60% of the distal ends are acuminate.

The distal end is usually sharply acute, but may approach an acuminate type.

Thirteen percent have acuminate distal ends and 87% have acute distal ends.

At the base they are covered with large ovate-acuminate brown or sometimes dark and shining scales.

In the latter work it may be seen that Gov. Colden long ago described the auricles as being “also often acuminate.”
