it has been found practicable to obtain leaf prints by exposing the leaf in a printing frame, upon solio paper, at the same time that the epidermis print is made. In a few species both the upper and lower epidermis can be removed and the amount of light absorbed determined directly by exposing the strip covered with the chlorenchym. Generally, however, this must be computed by subtracting the sum of the per cents of reflected and transmitted light from 100 per cent, which represents the total light. [Illustration: Fig. 15. Leaf print: exposure as before. Sun and shade leaves of _Achillea lanulosa_, _Capnoides aureum_, _Antennaria umbrinella_, _Galium boreale_, and _Potentilla propinqua_.] =90. Leaf and epidermis prints.= In diphotic leaves the screening effect of the lower epidermis may be ignored. Isophotic sun leaves, i. e., those nearly upright in position or found above light-colored, reflecting soils, are usually strongly illuminated on both sides, and the absorbed light can be obtained only by measuring the screening effect of both epiderms. Shade leaves and submerged leaves often contain chloroplasts in the epidermis, and the above method can not be applied to them. In fact, in habitats where the light is quite diffuse, practically all incident light is absorbed. The rare exceptions are those shade leaves with a distinct bloom. In addition to their use in obtaining the amount of light absorbed, both leaf and epidermis prints are extremely interesting for the direct comparison of light relations in the leaves of species belonging to different habitats. The relative screening value of the upper and lower epidermis, or of the corresponding epiderms of two ecads or two species, is readily ascertained by exposing the two side by side in sunshine, over the slit in the photometer. For leaf prints fresh leaves are desirable, though nearly the same results can be obtained from leaves dried under pressure. The leaves are grouped as desired on the glass of a printing frame, and covered with a sheet of solio. They are then exposed to full sunlight, preferably at meridian, and the prints evaluated by means of the multiple standard. This method is especially useful in the comparison of ecads of one species. These differences due to transmitted light are very graphic, and can easily be preserved by “toning” the print in the usual way. _Expression of Results_
