The classification given by Parker and Haswell intheir Textbook of Zoology ^ is also a very con-venient one. The divisions or classes are more com-prehensive than in the previous table. ThusClass yi., the Reticularia (Foraminifera) of EayLankester, is included in the 1st group, the Rhizo-poda, together with the Classes III., lY., Y., and YITof that author. Phylum PROTOZOA. Class 1.
