PROTOZOA—EHIZOPODA. Figs. i'S, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52. These figures are from diagrams iiy Major Owen, to illustrate ajsaper given in Jour. Linn. Soc. vol. viii. p. 202. They illustrate forms of living Polycystina, sketched from life by Major Owen, and show the richly coloured api:)earauee of the sarcode ; figs. 48 to 52 — 53. Monocystis lunibricorum, round form—54. Monocystis lunibricorum, the usual elongated shape—55. Monocystis serpulse—56. Gregarina Sie- boldii; illustration of septate form, with reflexed hook-like proces.ses — 57. Monocystis lunibricorum, encysted — 58. Monocystis lumbricoruni, more advanced and pseudo-navice'lae forming —59. Monocystis Uimbricorum, free pseudo-navicella of—60, 61. Monocystis lumbricoruni, amo?boid forms of—62. Cruciate sponge-spicule—63. Asteromma Humboldtii —64. Euzoou Canadense, represents appearance of a portion of the natural size —65. E6- zoon Canadense, magnified, showing portions of cell-walls left uncoloured, the animal sarcode inhabiting it coloured dark green as in nature, and converted by fossilization into a siliceous mineral: the narrow bands pass- ing between these are processes (stolons) of the same substance—66. Acti- nophrys Sol, budding—67. Euglena virldis : a. contracted, h. elongated form —68. Acineta tuberosa — 69. fficistes longicorais (Davis). — 70. Oxytricha gibba (side view)—71. Oxytricha pellionella —72. Limnias (? n. sp.)—73. Cyclidium glaucoma—74. Glaucoma scintillans—75 to 79, SO to 85, illustrate forms of Foraminifera found by Major Owen, living—75. Globigerina (Or- bulina) acerosa, n. sp., broken open to show interior—76. Globigerina (Orbulina) continens, n. sp. broken open to show interior—77. Globigerina liirsuta—78. Globigerina (Orbulina) universa—79. Globigerina buUoides— SO. Conochilus vorticella—81. Globigerina buUoides—82. Globigerina in- flata, sinistral shell—83. Pulvinulina Mieheliniana—84. Pulvinulina Canari- ensis—85. P. Menardii. The figures of recent Polycystina illustrate the .surface-fauna of mid-ocean ; the original drawings were made from living specimens, as were those of the Foraminifera ; they well represent in their natural state these elegant and interesting objects. 53 to 61 give some idea of the state of our knowledge of forms and life-history of the Gregarinie. Figures of Infusoria 67, 68, 70, 71, 73, 74 : 69, 72, new forms of Rotifera. PLATE lY.—Page 5n. POLYZOA. Fig. 86. Hartea clcgaiis—87. Side view of Synapta spicula—88.
