Polybleph or /V 1(55 Multiplication takes place by longitudinal fission, in some forms com-mencing at the anterior and in others at the posterior extremity. Resting-cells are formed by the direct encystment of the motile individuals, Gametesof a more or less isogamous character occur in Dunaliella (Teodoresco, 05),and they fuse in pairs to form zygotes. The most primitive genus of the family is Polyblepharides, in which the body of thecell is conical with a broad anterior end to which are attached from six to eight cilia. InPyramimonas, which possesses only four cilia, the cell-body is also more or less conical, Chloraster, which is furnished with five cilia, is and is four-lobed in the anterior H Fig. 95.
