Diagram showing the stages in the growth-period of oocytes in Fundulus which are referred to throughout the text. In the cytosome the circles which are empty represent the vesicles in which yolk may appear later; circles which are lined represent fat deposits; and circles which are solid represent either intra- or extravesicular yolk. of peripheral cytoplasm is free of vesicles and cells may be 600 microns in diameter (Fig. 14). Between the vesicles the internal cytoplasm is seen as a reticulum. The zona radiata appears at this stage, and the nucleus of the oocyte is increasingly eccentric. The beginning of stage Bi is marked by the initial appearance of globules of yolk (intra- vesicular yolk) within the vesicles (Figs. 10 and 13). During stage.
