The difference in these cases seems to be due to the fact that these septa. Fig. 3.— Diagrams to illustrate some of the palie formulae referred to in the descriptions of the forms. A is an ideal calicle, showing twelve septa, with primary and secondary cycles. This (see text, pp. 18, 20) is, however, probably never seen in Pmites, the appearances suggesting it being secondary, and due to the fact that the intra-calicular trabeculae do not grow as fast as the wall trabeculee, and the calicle is consequently deep. In E septal granules are indicated to show how it is possible for them to take part in the formation of the palic ring, which they sometimes seem to do. In G we see the trident formation mentioned here and there in the descriptions, the ventral directive being joined by a radial strand to the central tubercle and to the two lateral septal granules by synapticulse. do not yet project far enough, the trabeculse of their inner edges having lagged behind and not risen to the surface, while in B, C, D the inner trabeculse of the same septa rise up as pali to D 2.
