Both the nucleus of the second polar body and the femalepronucleus often consist at first of several distinct vesicles, butthese soon fuse to form typical spherical or oval nuclei. Whilethe enlarging female pronucleus is moving back from the apicalpole towards the center of the o.^^, a mass of archoplasm con-taining two centrosomes may be distinguished near its lowerface (Fig. 5). / have never been able to find any traces of such.
