Meaning of arcestida




Danilo Enrique Noreña Benítez

arcestida
  45

The correct term is arcéstide, with tilde. It's another way of calling a special type of fruit from coniferous plants. They are also called cone, strobilus or pineapple.

  




Felipe Lorenzo del Río

arcestida is incorrectly written, and should be written as "arcestida" as meaning: The cones of seeds or fructifications of coniferous plants, botanists given different name according to their form, aspect or belonging to different family or genus. So call arcestida to the fruit of Juniper and the Sabine women, that people consider berries, which are indehiscent and contain a single seed; also called oriole to the fruit of the Cypress, which is dehiscent because it has many seeds and pineapple from the pine cones.
