Conceptades.—The conceptacles, containing the sexual organs, are scat-tered over the surface of the internode, or, rather, in its outer tissues. Theconceptacles are flask-shaped, and about 03 inch in diameter. The tissuelining them is of two distinct kinds ; that of the mouth and about one-sixthof the depth of the cavity resembles, and is apparently a contmuation of,the limiting tissue (PL XIII., fig. 4), but the remainder consists of corticaltissue. These facts would lead to the supposition that the origin of theseconceptacles is the same as that of those in Fucus serratus ;* but on thispoint I am not prepared to give a definit
