The water moulds are very interesting plants to study because they are so easy to obtain, and it is so easy to observe a type of gonidium here to which we have referred in our studies ofthealgae, the motile gonidium, or zoogonidium. (See appen- dix for directions for cultivating this mould.) 280. Appearance of the saprolegnia.—In the course of a few days we are quite certain to see in some of the cultures deli- cate whitish threads, radiating outward from the bod) 01 the tl\ in the water. A few threads should be examined from day to day to determine the stage of the fungus. 281. Sporangia of saprolegnia.—The sporangia of saprolegnia can be easily detected because they are much stouter than the
