Pleurotaenium mdulosum Rabenhorst. colorless vacuole with dancing particles as in X 175- (Original.) Closterium. 40 (39, 41) Cells before middle constriction swollen and with longitudinal flutings; chromatophores of longitudinal radial plates. Docidium Lundell. Cells tapering somewhat towards the ends; no vacuoles with moving granules; membrane either smooth or with minute protuberances and even with spines in certain regions. Fig. 126. Docidium baculum Brebisson. X 545. (Original.) 41 (39, 40) Shape of cells much as in Pleurotaenium, but apices broadly cleft or with bidentate processes Triploceras Bailey. Cells large, walls covered with rings of furcate processes or small, perpendicular longitudi- nally-placed plates. Sometimes confused with Docidium. Fig. 127. Triploceras gracile Bailey. One-half of a cell. (After Cushman.) 42 (34) Constrictions at the sides deep and abrupt 43 43 (44) End views of cells 3 to several angled or rayed. Staurastrum Lundell. Side view hour-glass shaped; membrane smooth or with warts or spines; chromatophores in each cell-half consisting of radially-placed plates about a central pyrenoid, two plates extendmg into each arm or angle. Fig. 128. Staurastrum crenulatum'i^HgAi. X 600. (Original.) 44 (43) End views of cells compressed or elliptical, often enlarged at the center 4S. 4S (48) Cells at end with notches or linear incisions. 46.
