Two to eight cells in the portions near the margin are seen to be thin-walled with the outer membranes convex, constituting the nematogones, or cells active in propagation. Although gemmae are produced through- out the year yet none may be found on the material collected. In this case allow the moss to grow for a few weeks in the moist chamber and examine again. When found detach a number, and. Fig. 145. Gemmae of vario
