Under a high-power lens it is observed that a pore usually has a dark border (Fig. 2\, B) which may be round, oblong or occasionally almost diamond-shaped, and it may show indica- tions of radial streaks. Inside the border lies the wall {W) which is usually dark and heavy; it is the most conspicuous part of the organ and may be round or oblong. Inside the wall
