Thus Minchin describes it as a combination of chro- matin and plastin; Doflein defines a karyosome as a centrally placed, sharply outlined and constant constituent of the nucleus, which may contain no chromatin or may be a combination of other substances with chromatin and which divides during nuclear division, to form B.

(Original.) two corresponding daughter structures (Doflein, 1916, p. 22), Hartmann's (1911) definition is more limited, a karyosome in his use of the term being an endosome (Binnenkorper) containing a centriole. Belar (1921) finds a "karyosome" in CJdamydophrys minor which breaks up and disappears forming neither chromatin nor kinetic elements. If we attempt to combine these different views into a common definition we find that a karyosome may be an intranuclear body which may consist of plastin alone; or kinetic element alone; or chromatin together with plastin; or a combination of chromatin with kinetic elements; or a combination of chromatin, plastin, and kinetic elements. Such a definition obviously would fail to specify any particularly nuclear structure and so far as its.
