A peculiar and most unusual type of vesicular nucleus is present in Nodiluca viiliaris and has the superficial appearance of a massive nucleus. Two distinct types of structure have been described, one by Doflein, the other by Calkins, and the descriptions differ so widely that it is difficult to recognize them as pertaining to the same organism. According to Doflein, the nucleus belongs to the massive.
