1. Unit of growth could not be determined on specimens of group 1 because there was no visible marker of growth interruption (see text). For groups 2 and 3, unit of growth could only rarely be determined, because most specimens included only part of a single flush. In contrast, the distinctive single-internode flushes of group 4 were reliably scored.
