THE GAMETOPHYTE IN THE SEVERAL GROUPSOF PTERIDOPHYTA. We must now shortly describe the formation of the prothallus in theseveral groups in order that we may discuss how far we can recognize orconstruct relationships between them. We shall begin with the Lyco-podineae because here the sexual organs show a relatively primitive con-struction as has been already indicated :— A. GAMETOPHYTE OF THE ^.
