		Calyces are tiny, almost pin prick size, and arranged in rows along ridges that radiate from the center of a growing plate to the plates margin.
		Calyces range from 10 to 15 mm in diameter, are somewhat irregular in outline and their rims show a tooth-like appearance that is caused by the incomplete development of one cycle of septa.
		Calycal diameter ranges 2 to 5 mm and the calyces are clearly separated and slightly protruding from the coral surface.

	Brooklyn Botanic Garden: Red Sorrel, Hibiscus sabdariffa: The Other "Cranberry"
		The red pods—technically the fruits—and calyces are fused and difficult to distinguish from one another.
		Along with the fruit, calyces, and flowers, the leaves of red sorrel are also edible.
		The calyces, for example, are high in calcium, niacin, riboflavin, and iron.

	Floridata: Hibiscus sabdariffa
		Florida cranberry's red stems and red petioles are pretty, but it's the pointy-tipped calyces at the base of the flowers that are harvested for juice.
		The calyces are harvested while they are still tender and juicy, about 10 days after the flowers appear.
		Bring 2 quarts (1.9 l) of calyces and 1 quart (1 l) of water to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes, then strain and use the juice with sugar to make a refreshing cranberry-like drink, or make jelly or wine as you would with any fruit juice.

	Roselle
		In 1971, it was reported that roselle calyces, produced and dried in Senegal, particularly around Bambey, were being shipped to Europe (Germany, Switzerland, France and Italy) at the rate of 10 to 25 tons annually.
		Juice made by cooking a quantity of calyces with 1/4 water in ratio to amount of calyces, is used for cold drinks and may be frozen or bottled if not for immediate needs.
		Infusions of the leaves or calyces are regarded as diuretic, cholerectic, febrifugal and hypotensive, decreasing the viscosity of the blood and stimulating intestinal peristalsis.

		The minor calyces are branches of the MAJOR CALYCES.
		The epithelium of the minor and major calyces is transitional, beginning with 2-3 layers and ending with 8 or more layers.
		Urine is emptied into the calyces which are like funnels that send it to each of the ureters.

		The renal sinus is lined by a prolongation of the fibrous tunic, which is continued around the lips of the hilum.
		The renal calyces, from seven to thirteen in number, are cup-shaped tubes, each of which embraces one or more of the renal papillæ; they unite to form two or three short tubes, and these in turn join to form a funnel-shaped sac, the renal pelvis.
		The renal calyces and pelvis form the upper expanded end of the excretory duct of the kidney.

	[No title]
		The major calyces empty into the renal pelvis, which in turn drains into the ureter.
		As the reduced volume of filtrate ascends toward the distal convoluted tubule in the cortex, the removal of chloride and sodium (but not water) by the cells lining this portion of the loop causes the fluid in its lumen to gradually become isotonic or hypotonic.
		The ureter wall thickens and the muscle cells change from a helical to a longitudinal array near the bladder before fanning out in the bladder wall to form the superficial and deep trigones of the bladder.

		The calyces are often referred to a "flowers" so it can be confusing to know whether a recipe refers to the petals or the calyces.

	eMedicine - Hydronephrosis and Hydroureter : Article Excerpt by: Srinivas Vourganti, MD
		Hydronephrosis is defined as a dilation of the renal pelvis and calyces.
		On the other hand, a chronically dilated system may be associated with compression of the papillae, thinning of the parenchyma around the calyces, and coalescence of the septa between calyces.
		Eventually, cortical atrophy progresses to the point at which only a thin rim of parenchyma is present.

		A Florida horticulturalist wrote that fresh hibiscus calyces were being sold by the quart in southern Florida in 1907, and they were known as "Florida cranberry" until post-war urban sprawl—punctuated by a hurricane and a freeze—wiped out the commercial karkady gardens about 1960.
		The calyces mature during the long, hot days of summer, and the harvest begins in the autumn.
		Leaves were eaten green or dry, cooked with onions and groundnuts [peanuts]." Leaves, seeds and calyces are used in Guinea as a diuretic and as a sedative.

		Calyces of the red and dark red coloured type are extracted and sweetened to produce a refreshing drink while calyces and leaves of the green type are used for making vegetable stew (Babalola 2000).
		The calyces were picked randomly early in the morning and transferred immediately to the laboratory.
		In summary, roselle calyces could be good source of nutrients, therefore their consumption should be encouraged among the disadvantaged groups in developing countries.

		The renal calyces are narrow tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the renal pelvis.
		The ureters are two thin, tube shaped structures that connect to the kidneys and carry urine to the bladder.

		Unlike the gonads which descend during development, the mesopnephric kidneys originate within the lower lumbar and sacral regions and "ascend" presumably due to a decrease in body curvature and a growth of the body in the sacral and lumbar regions.
		Structural subdivisions of the cortex cannot be viewed without a microscope but the medulla is divided grossly into renal pyramids with the renal columns in between adjacrnt pyramids.
		Several minor calyces unite to form major calyces which dump the urine into the expanded portion of the ureter, the renal pelvis.

		Multiple minor calyces unite to form major calyces and the major calyces in turn empty into the larger renal pelvis, which then becomes the ureter.
		Once the finished filtrate moves from the renal papilla and into the minor calyces it is referred to as urine.
		The first structure of the nephron is the renal corpuscle, composed of capillaries called the glomerulus and a surrounding capsule called the glomerular capsule (Bowman’s capsule).
