Family Androspyrida.

PLATE 90. Androspyrida. Diam. Page. Fig. 1. Nephrospyris paradictyum, n. sp. (vel Paradictyum paradoxum), × 250 [1102] The complete shell, seen from the frontal side. Fig. 2. Nephrospyris paradictyum, n. sp., × 250 [1102] The incomplete shell, seen from the dorsal side. Fig. 3. Nephrospyris paradictyum, n. sp., × 500 [1102] The sagittal ring, isolated, from the dorsal side; more enlarged. Fig. 4. Nephrospyris paradictyum, n. sp., × 120 [1102] Vertical section through half the shell, exhibiting the thickened margin with the included symbiontes (compare page [1101]). Fig. 5. Nephrospyris paradictyum, n. sp., × 200 [1102] Oblique marginal view of the shell. Fig. 6. Nephrospyris paradictyum, n. sp., × 250 [1102] Marginal view of a young specimen, with open fissure between the two parallel net-plates. Fig. 7. Nephrospyris paradictyum, n. sp., × 250 [1102] The soft body alone, without the skeleton. The bilobed central capsule exhibits a central transverse nucleus, and on each lobe a stratum of oil-globules. The kidney-shaped calymma contains on the margin numerous symbiontes (Xanthellæ or Vorticellinæ? Compare page [1102]). Fig. 8. Nephrospyris paradictyum, n. sp., × 500 [1102] Three single unicellular symbiontes (Zooxanthellæ?). Fig. 9. Nephrospyris renilla, n. sp. (vel Nephrodictyum renilla), × 250 [1101] The bilobed central capsule is enclosed by the discoidal shell and in the middle constricted by the sagittal ring; it contains a transverse nucleus. The kidney-shaped calymma contains in the peripheral part numerous symbiontes (Xanthellæ or Vorticellinæ? Compare page [1101]). Fig. 10. Nephrospyris renilla, n. sp., × 250 [1101] A singular abnormality (occurring not rarely), in which the reduced skeleton has nearly disappeared and the sagittal ring alone remained. The kidney-shaped calymma, however, which encloses numerous symbiontes, has preserved the form of the skeleton. The bilobed central capsule is similar to that in figs. 7 and 9, and is encircled by the thickened sagittal ring.
