Although the number of these is usuallysmall, they may be so numerous as to enlarge and change theshape of the -Malpighian body to an oval whose longer axis isparallel with the medullary rays and nearly .3 mm.

This condition, so far as the swollen state of the cells is con-cerned, is not infrequent.
