It frequently happens among cryptogams that this yonidialfructification is by far the more conspicuous, the sexual fructifica-tion being often so obscure that it cannot be detected withoutgreat difficulty ; and we shall presently see that there are somethallophytes in which the production of yon ids seems to go onindefinitely, no form of sexual generation having been detectedin them. These general statements will now be illustrated bysketches of the life-history of some of those humble thallophyteswhich present the phenomena of cell-division, conjugation, and.
