A, Macrospore with the prothallium (.pr), X50; B, young sporophyte still attached to the spore (sp), X8; cot, cotyledons; R, root; C, upper part of an older stage, X6; D, a still older one showing the first di- chotomy, X4- The embryo of S. spinulosa (Bruchmann (4) ) has a short and massive suspensor, and no foot is developed. Miss Lyon (2) found that in both S. apus and 5". rupestris, fertilisation occurred while the spores were still within the spo- rangium, and the sporangium attached to the strobilus. "The strobilus of S. rupestris retains its physiological connection.
