(All modified from LiitkemiUler.) 02). The girdle-bands (or intercalary bands) are not comparable with thoseof Diatoms (consult p. 119). Asexual reproduction takes place very occasionally by the formation ofaplanospores (fig. 233 E—G and H—J). Desmidiacese 371 These have been observed in Spondylosjum nitens (Wallich) Arch. (Wallich, 60 ;Turner, 93), Closterium Cornu Ehrenb. (Lagerheim, 86), Hyalotheca neglecta Racib.(W. & G. S. W., 98), H. dissiliens (Sm.) Breb. (W. & G. S. W., 07) and Cosmariumbioculatwm Breb.

Sexual reproduction of a low, and probably degenerate, type occurs by theconjugation of two individual cells and the fusion of two large equal gametesto form a zygospore. The conjugation is similar to that in the Zygnemacese 24—2 372 Conjugate and with the solitary exception of Desmidium cylindricum, there is no definiteco
