Klebs first statement does not apply to the smaller species of Ulothrix and repeatedexperiment has failed to confirm it in U. zonata. Experiments extending over two years. Fig. 183. A, part of filament of Ulothrix sequalis Kiitz. to show single chloroplast with pyreuoid(py). B and C, U. zonata (Web. & Mohr) Kiitz. B, part of filament showing germinationof microgonidia (which have never been motile) to form new plants ; C, similar germinationof macrogonidia. D, Stichococcus variabilis W. & G. S. West. E, aquatic form ofS. flaccidus (Kiitz.) Gay, only in outline except for one cell which shows partial frag-mentation of chloroplast. F, S. bacillaris Nag.
