All X so. the annulus varying between 20 and 25. There is also a greater simplicity in the region of the stomium, -which in Trichomanes is represented by two cells only. No. 102 represents the "peripheral" face, the thin-walled region being surrounded by the annulus, which takes the form of a twisted hoop. This twisted form is clearly shown in No. 99, which demonstrates also the relation.
