In many cases the blepharoplast is double, as in most biflagellated forms (Fig. 46, A); in others it is triple, as in Trimastigamwha jihilippinensis or Chilomastix mesnili (Fig. 45, B); in some it is quadruple, or contains foin* basal bodies as in Tricho- monas; in others it is multiple, forming a r

Fig. 49.—Calonympha grassii Foa. (From Doflcin.) Finally in flagellates with multiple nuclei (family Caloni/niphidoe), in addition to a number of free })lepharoplasts and parabasal bodies, each nucleus is accompanied by a blepharoplast which gi\es rise to three uniform flagella and one longer, band-formed flagellum, by a parabasal body, and by a rhizoplast (axial thread, Fig. 49). Many of these aggregations of kinetic elements are sufficiently complex to justify the term neuromotor system of Sharp and Kofoid and appear to form a coordinated whole as shown by the reaction after maceration when they retain their connections and remain together for some time after the supporting protoplasm has disap-.
