The pores or inhalent openings so cha- racteristic of the Sponge bod}' are in reality only intercellular spaces, and are able to close themselves, vanish and be replaced by new pores, which arise by the separation of one cell from another (tig. 1G1). * Upon this ground Clark declared the Sponges to be nearly allied to tho Flaqdlata, arid regarded them as great colonies of the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Claus, Carl, 1835-1899; Sedgwick, Adam, 1854-1913; Sinclair, F.
