Fig. 1. Collozoum serpentinum, n sp (vel Collophidium serpentinum, Hkl), | × | 10 | [26] |
| A living cœnobium, with expanded pseudopodia. The spherical calymma (or the common jelly-mass of the colony) is alveolate and contains numerous cylindrical, serpentine, central capsules. Numerous yellow cells or xanthellæ are scattered between the radial pseudopodia in the periphery. | |||
| Fig. 2. Collozoum serpentinum, n. sp., | × | 50 | [26] |
| An isolated, cylindrical, worm-shaped, central capsule, with an axial series of oil-globules; the red points are nuclei. | |||
| Fig. 3. Collozoum serpentinum, n. sp., | × | 150 | [26] |
| An isolated, cylindrical, serpentine, central capsule. k, Oil-globules forming an axial series; n, densely placed, red-coloured nuclei;, c, the capsule membrane under which are scattered small black pigment spots in the colourless cortical zone of the endoplasm; a, extracapsular alveoles; x, xanthellæ or "yellow cells." | |||
| Fig. 4. Collozoum amœboides, n. sp., | × | 100 | [28] |
| A spherical cœnobium or jelly-colony. Each amœboid central capsule contains an oil-globule; the small red points are nuclei. | |||
| Fig. 5. Collozoum amœboides, n. sp., | × | 400 | [28] |
| c, A single isolated central capsule; n, nuclei; k, oil-globule. | |||
| Fig. 6. Collozoum vermiforme, n. sp., | × | 30 | [27] |
| g, A spherical cœnobium or jelly-colony; a, large alveoles, forming a cortical zone; c, central capsules; k, oil-globules. | |||
| Fig. 7. Collozoum vermiforme, n. sp., | × | 100 | [27] |
| c, A single isolated central capsule; x, xanthellæ surrounding this central capsule; k, oil-globules; n, nuclei. | |||
| Fig. 8. Collozoum ellipsoides, n. sp., | × | 2 | [26] |
| A spherical colony; the red points are central capsules. | |||
| Fig. 9. Collozoum ellipsoides, n. sp., | × | 150 | [26] |
| c, A single isolated central capsule; k, oil-globules; n, nuclei. | |||
| Fig. 10. Collozoum inerme, Hkl., | × | 2 | [25] |
| An old, cylindrical, articulated cœnobium; the red points are centralcapsules. | |||
| Fig. 11. Collozoum inerme, Hkl., | × | 2 | [25] |
| A young cylindrical cœnobium; the red points are central capsules. | |||
| Fig. 12. Collozoum inerme, Hkl., | × | 400 | [25] |
| A piece of a young colony with eight small central capsules, without oil-globules. n, The central nucleus in different stages of division. Two capsules are also dividing. x, Xanthellæ in the jelly-like calymma (blue), which also contains numerous vacuoles. | |||

Fig. 1. Sphærozoum trigeminum, n. sp., | × | 50 | [43] |
| An annular colony. The main mass of the jelly-colony is filled up by large alveoles; the entire surface is densely covered with spicula, and beyond this skeleton-cover lie the spherical central capsules, each with an oil-globule. This species is by mistake not mentioned in the text. | |||
| Fig. 2. Sphærozoum alveolatum, n. sp., | × | 50 | [43] |
| Section through a spherical colony; displaying the inside of a hemisphere. All the central capsules lie in a single stratum on the surface of the jelly-sphere, each being surrounded by a thick-walled alveole. The spicula lie between the alveole and the capsule, which includes a central oil-globule. | |||
| Fig. 3. Sphærozoum alveolatum, n. sp., | × | 400 | [43] |
| A single central capsule, filled up by crystal-spores. Numerous geminato-radiate spicula and spherical xanthellæ lie between the capsule and the including thick-walled alveole. In the jelly-calymma, between the capsule and the alveole, numerous thin ramified pseudopodia are expanded. | |||
| Fig. 4. Sphærozoum geminatum, n. sp., | × | 400 | [45] |
| A single central capsule, with a central oil-globule, surrounded by numerous spicula and spherical xanthellæ. The jelly-substance of the calymma is expanded between the points of the spicula. | |||
| Fig. 5. Sphærozoum variabile, n. sp., | × | 300 | [45] |
