    DESCRIPTION OF COLOURED PLATES. PLATE I.—Page 255. PEOTOPHYTA. Fig. 1. Pezizabicolor—2. Truffle—3. SpliEEriaherbarum: a. piece of deadplani, with 5. herbarum natural size; b. section of same, slightly magnified ; d. Ascus with spores, and paraphyses more magnified—4. Peziza pj'gmsea—5. Proliferoits form of same—6. P. corpulasis; Ascus with spores and paraphyses, merely given as a further illustration of structure in Peziza—7. Yeast, good—8. Yeast, exhausted—9. Phyllactinia guttata—10. Yeast with favus spores and mycelium—11. Favus ferment, with torulse and bacteria-like bodies—12. Puccinia-like-form in ditto, growing from saccharine solution— 13. Aerozoa—14. Sporules, <fec. from eczema produced by yeast—15. Volvox globator—16. Amoeboid condition of portion of volvox—17. Puceiuia buxi— 18. Ditto, more enlarged—(17 to 20 illustrate Coniomycetes)—19. jEcidium grossulariae, transverse section of leaf of currant aflected by: a. spermo- gones on upper surface ; 6. perithecia with spores—20. Phragmidium bul- bosum, development of—21. Parmelia parietina, trans, section through a spermogone, showmg gi'een gonidia and spermatia escaping—22. iEcidium berberidis, from leaf of berberry—23. Vaucheria sessilis—24. Stephauo- sphaera pluvialis: a. Full-grown example, germ-cells spindle-shai>ed, with protoplasmic elongations. 6. Resting-cell. c. di^asion into four. d. Free swimming ciliated young specimen, c. Amoeboid condition—25. a, b, c, d, e, f and g, Development of Lichen gonidia—26. Parmelia stellaris (Lichen), vertical section through apothecium, shovring asci, spores, and paraphyses, with gonidia and filamentous medulla, a. Speymatophore with spermatia —27. iVIoss gonidia assuming amoeboid form. The intention of this phxte has been, first to show illustrations of various forms of Protophytes, as the lowest types of vegetable structure ; (from 7 to 14), supposed modes of development or rudi- mentary conditions ; and Confervoideai illustrated by Vaucheria in the Sii^honacese, f. 23, Stephanosphsera 24, and Volvox 15, in the Volvociuese ; and their remarkable amojboid conditions illustrated by 16, 24 e, and 27. The protean forms assumed in development by 7 to 14 ; 24 a to e ; 25 a to g, and 27. PLATE II.—Page 273. PROTOPHYTA, ALG.S]. Fig. 27. Ceramium acanthonotum — 28. Triploceras gracile—29. Cosmarium radiatum—30. Miorasterias denticulata—31. Docidium pristidse—32. Calli- thamnion plumula—33. Diatomacese, living: a. Licmophora splendida ; 6. Achnanthes longipes; c. Grammatophora marina. These figures are in- tended to show the general character of the endochrome and growth of frustule—34. Callithamuion refractum—35. Jungermannia albicans. 6. re- presents elater and spores—36. Leaf with antheridia, or male elements, which are represented more magnified at a to the left of the figure—37. Ceramium- echinotum—38. Pleurosigma angulatum, side view—39. Delesseria hyjio- glossum—40. Pleurosigma angulatum, front view, endochrome not repre- sented—41. Ceramium iiabelligerum. The intention of this plate is chiefly to show various forms of Algse. The figures of Desmids, 28 to 33, illustrate the appearance b
