Our figures show usually only the cell walls, the perfectly preserved contents being omitted for the sake of clearness. Mitotic figures were common, showing that the cells were in active growth. The figures are of longitudinal sections, except fig. 13, are all drawn to the same scale, and having been reduced one-half are now magnified about 625 diameters. Longitudinal sections through the apex of gemmiferous plants show, as near to the apical cell as the third segment, a differentiation in the cells which are to form the gemmiparous area. Instead of.
