Position of floral parts on thalamus -

Hypogyny - ovary is at the top and separable from thalamus. ovary is superior and convex

eg: Brassica & malva

perigyny: ovary is half superior and half inferior. example, rose.

Epigyny - calyx & corolla arise from the upperside of ovary & Ovary is completely surrounded by or fused by thalamus. Ovary is inferior. eg: luffa , Aster

 If gynoecium is situated in the centre and other parts of the flowers are located on the rim of the thalamus almost at the same level, it is called perigynous. The ovary here is said to be half inferior, i.e, plum rose, peach, etc.
