The chromidiosomes are suspended in, and held in place by, the linin reticuhnn, which in some cases is extremely delicate and difficult to see, while the inter- alveolar spaces are filled with fluid enchylema {e. g., Arcella vukjaris). In other cases, owing to the suspension of very fine chromomeres, the outlines of the intranuclear alveoli are characteristically distinct {e. g., Acineta grandis). In most massive nuclei, however, the comparati\ely large chromidiosomes distort the alveolar walls, more or less completely obliterating the reticulum. {c) Membrane.— Like other constituent parts of the protozoon nuclei, the membranes are highly variable, sometimes presenting in optical section only one contour on the outer side {e. g., Adino- sphoBrium); sometimes showing contours both outside and inside {Amceha protens). In the former case the inner zone adjacent to the membrane shows a decreasing density inwards, until the linin merges insensibh' into the intranuclear reticulum. In free-nuclei.
