San Martín Province
The San Martín Province is one of 10 provinces of the San Martín Region in northern Peru. Political division The province is divided into fourteen districts, which are: * Alberto Leveau ( Utcurarca) * Cacatachi ( Cacatachi) * Chazuta ( Chazuta) * Chipurana ( Navarro) * El Porvenir ( Pelejo) * Huimbayoc ( Huimbayoc) * Juan Guerra ( Juan Guerra) * La Banda de Shilcayo (La Banda) * Morales (Morales) * Papaplaya ( Papaplaya) * San Antonio (San Antonio) * Sauce (Sauce) * Shapaja ( Shapaja) * Tarapoto (Tarapoto) Places of interest * Sawsiqucha See also * Administrative divisions of Peru The administrative divisions of Peru have changed from time to time since the nation gained independence from Spain in the early 19th century.

Panicles
A panicle is a much-branched inflorescence. (softcover ). Some authors distinguish it from a compound spike inflorescence, by requiring that the flowers (and fruit) be pedicellate (having a single stem per flower). The branches of a panicle are often racemes. A panicle may have determinate or indeterminate growth. This type of inflorescence is largely characteristic of grasses such as oat and crabgrass, as well as other plants such as pistachio and mamoncillo. Botanists use the term paniculate in two ways: "having a true panicle inflorescence" as well as "having an inflorescence with the form but not necessarily the structure of a panicle". Corymb A corymb may have a paniculate branching structure, with the lower flowers having longer pedicels than the upper, thus giving a flattish top superficially resembling an umbel. Many species in the subfamily Amygdaloideae, such as hawthorns and rowans, produce their flowers in corymbs. up'' Sorbus glabrescens'' corymb with fruit ...

Axils
A leaf ( : leaves) is any of the principal appendages of a vascular plant stem, usually borne laterally aboveground and specialized for photosynthesis. Leaves are collectively called foliage, as in "autumn foliage", while the leaves, stem, flower, and fruit collectively form the shoot system. In most leaves, the primary photosynthetic tissue is the palisade mesophyll and is located on the upper side of the blade or lamina of the leaf but in some species, including the mature foliage of ''Eucalyptus'', palisade mesophyll is present on both sides and the leaves are said to be isobilateral. Most leaves are flattened and have distinct upper (adaxial) and lower ( abaxial) surfaces that differ in color, hairiness, the number of stomata (pores that intake and output gases), the amount and structure of epicuticular wax and other features. Leaves are mostly green in color due to the presence of a compound called chlorophyll that is essential for photosynthesis as it absorbs lig ...

Ray Flower
The family Asteraceae, alternatively Compositae, consists of over 32,000 known species of flowering plants in over 1,900 genera within the order Asterales. Commonly referred to as the aster, daisy, composite, or sunflower family, Compositae were first described in the year 1740. The number of species in Asteraceae is rivaled only by the Orchidaceae, and which is the larger family is unclear as the quantity of extant species in each family is unknown. Most species of Asteraceae are annual, biennial, or perennial herbaceous plants, but there are also shrubs, vines, and trees. The family has a widespread distribution, from subpolar to tropical regions in a wide variety of habitats. Most occur in hot desert and cold or hot semi-desert climates, and they are found on every continent but Antarctica. The primary common characteristic is the existence of sometimes hundreds of tiny individual florets which are held together by protective involucres in flower heads, or more technicall ...

Pentacalia
''Pentacalia'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae. About 34 members of this genus appear to be located in the South American county Ecuador, where they are threatened by habitat loss. The genus contains approximately two hundred species, which are distributed from Mexico to northern South America. Species of ''Pentacalia'' Species accepted by the Plants of the World Online Plants of the World Online (POWO) is an online database published by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew.
