Upon a transverse section of the thallus (Fig. 361 a) three diffe- rent layers are visible. In the middle a medullary tissue is present composed jof smaller thick-walled, roundish polygonal cells; from a longitudinal section (Fig. 361 h) it appears that these cells are rather long, cyhndrical, but of variable length about 250 ja long at their greatest; the transverse walls are often somewhat obhque. Then follows a parenchymatic tissue, whose innermost cells are larger gradually diminishing outwards. A transverse section shows these cells to be nearly circular in outline, while a longitudinal section shows them to be actually oblong about 60 long. Finally, the epidermal tissue consists of a single layer of cells only; the cells are nearly as long as broad; when seen from above roundish polygonal; their diameter is about 12 \x.
