The number of cells composing the antheridium is fairly constant for any one species,and in the monoecious species the position of the antheridium relatively to the oogonium isalso a character of specific importance. Sexual reproduction 395 The antherozoids are not always formed in quite the same way. In someof the smaller species of (Edogonium the protoplast of the antheridial cellforms one antherozoid. This is exceptional, as in general two antherozoidsarise in each antheridial cell (fig. 247 C—E). In some species of (Edogonium,especially the dioecious mac
