Licmophora splendida; b. Achnanthes longipes; c. Grammatophora marina. These figures are intended to show the general character of the endochrome and growth of frustule—34.

PROTOZOA.

Figs. 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52. These figures are from drawings made by Major Owen, to illustrate forms of living Polycystina, sketched from life; these convey a faint idea of the richly coloured appearance of the natural structure; Figs. 48 to 52—53. Gregarina lumbricorum, round form—54. Gregarina lumbricorum, the usual elongated form—55. Gregarina serpulæ—56. Gregarina Sieboldii; illustration of septate form, with reflexed hook-like processes—57. Gregarina lumbricorum, encysted—58. Gregarina lumbricorum, more advanced and pseudo-navicellæ forming—59. Gregarina lumbricorum, free pseudo-navicella of—60, 61. Gregarina lumbricorum, amœboid forms of—62. Cruciate sponge-spicule—63. Astromma Humboldtii—64. Eözoon Canadense, represents appearance of a portion of the natural size—65. Eözoon Canadense, magnified, showing portions of cell-walls left uncoloured, the animal sarcode inhabiting it coloured dark green as in nature, and converted by fossilisation into a silicious mineral; the narrow bands passing between these are processes (stolons) of the same substance—66. Actinophrys sol, budding—67. Euglena viridis: a. contracted; b. elongated form—68. Acineta tuberosa—69. Œcistes longicornis (Davis)—70. Oxytricha gibba (side view)—71. Oxytricha pellionella—72. Thuricola valvata, expanded—73. Cyclidium (glaucoma)—74. Oxytricha scintillans—75 to 79, 80 to 85, illustrate types of Foraminifera discovered by Major Owen, living—75. Globigerina acerosa, n. sp., broken open to show interior—76. Globigerina, n. sp., broken open to show interior—77. Globigerina hirsuta—78. Globigerina universa—79 and 81. G. Bulloides—80. Conochilus vorticella—82. Globigerina inflata, sinistral shell—83. Pulvinulina Micheliniana—84. P. Canariensis—85. P. Menardii.

METAZOA. BRYOZOA.

Fig. 86. Hartea elegans—87. Side view of Synapta spicula—88. Ophioglypha rosula (very immature specimen): a. Claw hooks; b. palmate spicula. The development of this species is described by G. Hodge, in “Transactions of Tyneside Naturalists’ Field-Club”—89. Spine of a star-fish, particularly interesting as showing the reticular calcareous network obtaining in this as in all other hard parts of the Echinodermata—90. Very minute Spatangus, obtained from stomach of a bream: many of the spines are gone, but the structure of the shell is intact and forms a beautiful object, interesting in connection with the source whence obtained—91. Ophioglypha neglecta: wriggling or brittle starfish. The plate does not admit of a figure on a scale sufficient to show the full beauty of this object—92. Tubularia Dumortierii—93. Pedicellaria mandibulata from Uraster glacialis—94. Pedicellaria forcepiforma, from the same—95. Cristatella mucedo; 96. Edge-view of statoblast; 97. early stage in development of same—98. Lophopus crystallinus—99. Plumatella repens with ova, on submerged stem—100. Tænia echinococcus—101. Hydatids from human liver—102. Bilharzia hæmatobia—103. Amphistoma conicum—104. Trichina spiralis from fleshy part of Hambrc’ pork—105. Trichina spiralis male, separated from muscle.—106, 107. Fasciola gigantea.
