A manual of the Infusoria : including a description of all known flagellate, ciliate, and tentaculiferous protozoa, British and foreign, and an account of the organization and the affinities of the sponges . the foregoingdiagnosis, was contributed by Professor H, James-Clark to the Memoirs of the GENUS TRICHODINA. 647 Boston Society of Natural History, vol. i., 1865, and is reprinted in Annals ofNatural History for June 1866. Several of the more important structural featureselicited through this investigator are reproduced in the accompanying to this authority the elongate dicebox-like contour referred to andreproduced in the figure first cited, represents the normal one maintained by thisanimalcule in a state of health, the turban-shaped or conical ones given byStein and other writers being assumed only when in a sickly condition, or whenconfined within too small a space for perfect freedom of motion. The peripheryof the body behind the adoral ciliated disc is described by Professor Clark as exhibit-ing in transverse optical section an exceedingly irregular outline, arising from thefact that the body is fluted and ribbed exteriorly from one end to the other by irregular.
