Each spermatozoon presented a tibrillated tail, andat times this fibrillation was seen to surround the head. The head staineddeeply, and at times a centrosome was distinct. Decided irregularity was notedin the size and form of the heads, which partially explains the variations foundin the measurements of these cells. Total length, . to mm., or to in.

At first sight the spermatozoon ofthe rat (Fig. 9) reminds one of theimmature male cell of the bird, andit is not impossible that these cellsmay undergo further spermatic fluids of both whiteand gray rats were studied, andno marked difference was found toexist between these cells.
