Abstract: A detailed comparison of HERA data at low Bjorken-x and low four-momentum-transfer squared, Q$^2$, with predictions based on lnQ$^2$ evolution (DGLAP) in perturbative quantum chromodynamics suggests inadequacies of this framework. The standard DGLAP evolution was augmented by including an additional higher-twist term in the description of the longitudinal structure function, F$_L$. This additional term, F$_L$A$_L^{HT}$/Q$^2$, improves the description of the reduced cross sections significantly. The resulting predictions for F$_L$ suggest that further corrections are required for Q$^2$ less than about 2 GeV$^2$.
