The wall of each sporangium (Fig. 125, h) is beset with numerous minute needles of oxalate of lime, whilst the swollen end of the hypha below projects into the cavity as a central column [Co.) ; between this and the wall are many small thick- waUed spores embedded ina mucilaginous substance. The latter swells in the presence of moisture, and thus contributes to the.
