FIG. 4.—Nucleus of later stage, showing chromatin products of nucleus scattered through pale reticulm. X 1500. chromosomes. However, both cytological study of the eggs and macroscopical examination of the gonads indicates that the eggs are close to maturation and that the chromosomes have already final characters. For most echino- derms thus far reported on, the somatic number of chromosomes is 36. If these bodies are really chromosomes their number (reduced) here must be several times as many. However, according to Boveri, Echinus inicro- tubcrculatus has only 18 somatic chromosomes, and Tennent1 reports a 1 Tennent, D. H., 1907.
