As the colony develops on the surface of the gelatin these wavy filaments spread out, until finally the entire colony consists of a light gray, tangled mass, which has been likened to a Medusa head (Fig. 73). At the same time the gelatin begins to liquefy, and the colony is soon surrounded by the liquefied medium,.
