(Figs. 18, 22, 23.) The Mastigophora are very widely distributed in sea, pond, and infusions of organic matter. An immense order, the Dinoflagel- lida, constitutes not a small part of the microscopic life of the sea, competing with the Sarcodina and microscopic plants in variety of species and number of individuals — numbers so immense that wide areas of the sea may become discolored or appear phosphorescent. Others, such as the Trypanosomes, have invaded the field of parasitism, living in the digestive tract and blood stream of higher animals. (Figs. 24, 224.) The versatility of the Mastigophora in FlG- 24-~ A Dinoflagdlate, mode oi lite and nutrition apparently im- plies a high potential of adaptation and evolution. Indeed, it is among them that certain interesting associations, or colonies, of Flagella.
