In basidiobolus, an intestinal fungoid parasite of the turtle, the organism forms straight or branched h}"pha? composed of sister cells Iving end to end, and at maturity two adjacent sister cells conjugate, a process recalling conjugation among the lower plants (conjugate, diatoms, etc.). In actinospherium the phenomena of fertilization are much more complex and have been made the subject of careful study In- Hertwig ('98). The first evidence of the process is the encystment of the adult organism and excretion of waste matters contained in the protoplasm. The many nuclei of the ordinary forms are here reduced to about 5 per cent, of the total by a process of fusion and absorption in the protoplasm, and after this has occurred the mother animal fragments into as many daughter cysts (^cytospores Xo. I) as there are.
