Single individuals meet and progress side by side, or one or more individuals may part from a group and glide away independently. Occasionally a number of rods progress in single file. It is, however, difficult to believe that these movements can occur on a solid Fig.

The author is inclined to beheve that there is an almost inappreciable layer of liquid on the surface of the gelatine, which is expressed after the gelatine sets. In tubes of nutrient agar-agar gelatinised obliquely and then kept upright the liquid so expressed collects at the bottom of the sloping Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the origi
