Gonium (Fig. 72), Pandorina, Uroglena, Proterospongia, Volvox, etc., have the cellulose jelly, while Dinobryon, Anthophysa, etc., are formed by attachment subsequent to division. In some of the more complicated colony-forms, especially in the Phytoflagellida, the adult condition is attained through cleavage stages as regular as in any metazoan egg. The formation of such a.
