Chromosomes in Cidaris Eggs Cross-Activated by Tripneustes Sperm. Cidaris 9 X Tripneustes cf. Figures 18 to 25. In general, the division figures of this cross are more regular than those of the Cidaris-Lytechinus cross. There are some lagging chromosomes, but these do not form so striking a feature as in the preceding cross. Some of the sections show the heterochromosomes especially well. In figure 18, for example, 3 V-shaped and 1 hook- like chromosome are present; in figure 19, 3 V-shaped chromosomes tii%\\\ il\ M'^h . i\ I I \ ct b. / ' ^- • 15 5/ Fig. 14, a and b, Cidaris 9 X Lylcch- imi-sd^.

These two illustrations represent the two classes of eggs that were present in these cultures. ^ In figures 20, b and c, 3 V's; in figures 21, a and 6, 3 V's and a hook; in figures 22, a and b, 3 V's; in figures 23, a and 6, 3 V's and a hook. The sections from which figures 24, a and b, were drawn are of more than usual interest. Most of the chromosomes appearing in b are longitudinal sections of the chro- mosomes shown in a, as indicated both by position and width of the chromosomes. The third section of this spindle (not shown in the illustrations) contains a much involved mass of chromosomes, v/hich. Please note that these images are extracted from scanned
