The last figure is 3| minutes after the rirst entrance. Plate II. Phototype 5. The First Entrance of the Spermatozoon. In this figure the sperm-head may be seen immediately after its entrance as a black, lance-shaped body at the lower pole of the egg opposite to the egg-nucleus. Another sperm-head, which has not entered, is seen at one side, lymg at the periphery of the egg. The sperm-head, as thus seen, represents only the nucleus of the spermatozoon. The middle-piece, which lies at the base of the nucleus, is not distinctly visible, since it is stained of the same [n many cases, however, — e. g., in the , the earthworm, the butterfly,— the tail also enters the egg.
