The conclusion is that a series of such buds may be produced by an individual scyphis- toma. The first appearance of a bud in a minute scyphistoma is in itself an expres- sion of a local acceleration of growth, and it would be gratuitous to assume that this growth would become abruptly arrested and that the same bud would remain A H.

It is more reasonable to interpret the conditions illustrated as being either the production of several buds successively from one site, or the production of but one bud, though at different stages of growth among different Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ); Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ).
