SUMMARY The androecial morphology and vascular anatomy of Mollugo nudicaulis Lam. are examined in serial transverse sections. Androecia of this species can be arranged in a reduction series. The position and vasculature of stamens in some transitional cases show that oligomery is likely to proceed from fusion rather than non‐production or abortion of primordia.
