.梁珆碩、林怡均-魔力捕夢網-串鼻龍果序
( Magical Dream Catcher-infructescence of Clematis grata)

串鼻龍為毛茛科鐵線蓮屬的植物，本屬的植物都具有聚合的瘦果，一整團如同捕夢網外形的果序其實由一朵花的離生心皮所發育而來，每一枚心皮發育為一枚瘦果，而每一枚瘦果則具有一條長尾狀的構造，尾狀構造上的長毛有助於風力傳播。每當秋風吹起，串鼻龍果序上每一枚瘦果會隨風揚起。

The Clematis grata belongs to the Ranunculaceae plant species, which share the characteristics of having aggromorated achenes. The clusters of achenes resembling dream catchers in appearance are in actuality produced from the apocarpous. Each single apocarpous develops into one achene that comes with a long tail-like structure.  The fur on the tail like structures aid in wind dispersal. Whenever the wind blows in autumn, each achene on the Clematis grata will rise upwards.
