The first bifurcation is shortly above the transition from the syncarpous to the apocarpous zone, the second bifurcation is somewhat higher up. |

In a sense, these taxa have gynoecia that are effectively apocarpous. |
|
Early angiosperm fruits were apocarpous, with several free carpels. |
|
Flowers are apocarpous, with the stigmas borne at the end of a long style. |

In many members of the rose and buttercup families, each flower contains a number of similar single-carpelled pistils, separate and distinct, which together represent what is known as an apocarpous gynoecium. |
