There are, especially in the samples collected by means of the centrifuge, numerous series of small forms, both coloured and colour- less, and often with very poorly de- veloped cell-walls. These, too, have already got or will shortly be given names, although many of them are prob- ably nothing more than development- stages of the larger forms. We can recognise the whole series by their char- acteristic ring-furrow, so that we are seldom left in doubt as to the classifica- tion of even the simplest types.
