The nucleus is not so large asis usually the case in cells of similar character, and, except thenucleolus, stains but slightly with the ordinary nuclear the fresh state these spore mother cells are absolutely opaque,owing to the great amount of granular matter, largely drops ofoil, that they contain. In embedding these in paraffine,however, the oil is dissolved and removed, and microtomesections show the fine granules of the cytoplasm arranged in anet-like pattern, the spaces between probably being occupiedby oil in the living cells.
