© 1999 Botanical Society of America, Inc. Cover Illustration: American lotus flower (Nelumbo utea: Nelumbonaceae) on the second day of anthesis, showing a central, gynoecial receptacle and several whorls of dehiscent stamens. Historically, Nelumbohas been considered to be closely related to Nymphaeales (water lilies); however, new systematic work has allied the genus with lower eudicots. See Kreunen and Osborn: Pollen and anther development in Nelumbo(Nelumbonaceae), pp. 1662–1676 in this issue.
