One member of a Tropical American genus of this family—namely Phyllohates trinitiUis, of Trinidad and Venezuela—is remarkable on account of its curious nursing liabits. The tadpoles are provided with sucking-discs on the mouth, by means of which they attach themselves to the back of their female parent, and are thus carried about in safety. As many as from twelve to eighteen tadpoles may sometimes be found thus clinging to one frog. A similar mode of attachment occurs in one species of the under-mentioned genus Dendrohates,

There are many similar consolidated forms which are not subterranean. Thus plants like the Houseleek (Fig. 91) imitate a bulb. Among Cactuses the columnar species of Cereus (Fig. Ill, b), may

Though, as a general rule, the alga is less affected by its altered life-conditions than the fungus, yet in many instances it becomes considerably modified in appearance. In species of the genus Pyrenopsis—small gelatinous lichens—the alga is a Gloeocapsa very similar to G. magma. In the open it forms small colonies of blue-green cells surrounded by a gelatinous sheath which is coloured red with gloeocapsin. As a gonidium lying towards or on the outside of the

S. arachnoideum (fig. 664) is particularly interesting from its having a web over its leaves ; it grows freely, and stands the coldest winters, although it is reputed to be tender. I found on the St. Gothard Pass a species covered with a web similar to this species, but none of the plants which I brought over lived. I grow also 5. anomalum, S. arenarium, S. globiferum, S. hirtum, S. Pittoni, S. soboliferum, S. Wulfenii, and many other species.. Plea
