. The structure and development of mosses and ferns (Archegoniatae). Plant morphology; Mosses; Ferns. THE JUNGERMANNIALES 93 off alternately right and left, and from each segment an arche^ gonium develops. The segment is first divided, probably, as in the male branch and the vegetative ones, into an inner and an outer cell, but I did not succeed in getting satisfactory longi- tudinal sections parallel to the surface, so cannot speak posi- tively on this point. The youngest segment, in which the archegonium mother cell is recognisable, shoves in vertical sec- tion three cells, a small ventral one, a middle larger one, and a dorsal one—the archegonium mother cell. The latter does not form any stalk, but divides at once by the three intersect- ing walls, as in other Hepaticae, and the further development corresponds with these, except that the base of the archegonium.
