(After Pocock.) gested that the volvocine colony has arisen at least twice in the course of evolution, once from a Sphaerella and once from a Chlamydomonas ancestry. Some evidence in support of this view has recently come to hand from a study of chromosome numbers (see below). On the other hand, the great uniformity of their sexual reproduction can be employed as an argument against such a di- phyletic origin. 30.
