Hi Steven,
the word I'm looking for refers to the phenomenon of producing morphological
"throwbacks" -- not the leaves themselves. It's good to have another word to
search with though, and I hadn't thought of "intergradient", so thanks!
Since I don't own Lloyd's book, can you tell me if he says anything else on
the subject? The book is out of print, right? I'd love to find it; should I
just look in used book stores? Or- probably being unrealistic here- does
anyone have a copy for sale? ;-)
