An incubation period of over two weeks may be necessary for the production of perithecia. The asci are shaped similar to an upside-down egg where the apex is broad and thicker than the base. | 538 |

Even while arguing against his views, however, Optatus does not refer to Parmenian as a heretic, but rather as a "brother." | 489 |

2216683 | Those categories of mistake in the United States exist as well, but it is often necessary to identify whether the error was a "decisional mistake", which is a mistake as a matter of law (faced with two known choices, making the wrong one), or an "ignorant mistake", unaware of the true state of affairs.

2353627 | These space group types are the symmetry groups “up to conjugacy with respect to affine transformations”: the affine transformation changes the translation distance to the standard one (above: 1), and the position of one of the points of reflections, if applicable, to the origin. Thus the actual symmetry group contains elements of the form gag−1= b, which is a conjugate of a.
For a homogeneous “pattern” the symmetry group contains all translations, and reflection in all points. The symmetry group is isomorphic to Dih(R). | 526 |
