They are oval cysts lying in sarcolemma sacs betvifeen the fibrillas. They have a cyst, the wall of which is radially striped, and inside this, in the ripe condition, are spores, imbedded in a stroma, each spore containing numerous reniform or falciform sporozoites. Sarcocystis miescheriana in muscles of pig; S. muris in the mouse; 5. lindemanni rare in human muscle. At the end of the Sporozoa may be mentioned some much disputed bodies of very minute size, which are found in several infectious diseases (variola, trachoma, hydrophobia, etc.) and are regarded as their cause. They have been united under the common head of Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Hertwig, Richard, 1850-1937; Kingsley, J.
