TEGULATION PATTERN:
The arrangement of
plates into series based upon
plate overlap or
imbrication. Each series is based upon a
keystone plate (or
secondary keystone plate), whose detachment allows removal of subsequent plates in that series. On each
episome or
hyposome there may be up to four
tegulation series. These series are termed:
primtegulate series,
sectegulate series,
terttegulate series and
quadtegulate series. See also
culmen. Refer to Text-Figure 30.
