I agree with the term, no further comments.

[zedomel]

Here we need definitions for each term in controlled vocab (e.g. bush, campanulate, etc)

[viniciusduartina]

Maybe you can use cap. 10 of Faegri and Pijl 1979 to define the values of this term.

[pietrokiyoshi]

The terms seem to be the usual ones used in the literature (although it may be difficult sometimes to classify the flowers to a specific category)

[zedomel]

@viniciusduartina could you share this chapter with me? I don't have access to this book :-(

@pietrokiyoshi can we simplify the controlled vocab to covers only more general cases?

Salim, I also suggest consulting http://www.ibiblio.org/botnet/glossary// (D. Perianth and Hypanthium Structural Types (Figure 6-6-2))

@zedomel, if you have not yet received access, I send you the PDF of the book mentioned by @viniciusduartina
Principles of Pollinaiton Ecology - Faegri & Van Der Pijl 1979.pdf

Here we need definitions for each term in controlled vocab (e.g. bush, campanulate, etc)

I think we can use the 12 types and definitions in Patt Willmer's book that incorporate the classification proposed by Faegri & Van Der Pijl.

Nothing to add.

For the controlled vocab we will adopt Patt Willmer's book and Faegri & Van Der Pijl.
