The apothecia may be further enlarged by intercalary growth, and this vigorous development of vegetative tissue immediately underneath raises the whole fruit structure well above the surface level. Sattler^ in his paper on Cladoniae'^ cites as an argument in favour of fertilization the relative positions of carpogonia and spermogonia on the podetia.

The nucleus divides equally, one-half passing into the swelling which, with only partial peristomial development, breaks away from the parent and then completes its peristomial differentiations.. Fig. WQ.—Councilmania lafleuri, a parasitic intestinal amcsba. A, normal, vegetative individual; B, to E, encysted individuals and formation of eight endo- genous buds which escape one by one (B, C). (After Kofoid and Swezy.) In Suctoria similar exogenous buds, either single or multiple, are formed from the oral
RMRDX3F3–. Lichens. Lichens. REPRODUCTION IN DISCOLICHENS 16s firmly attached to the trichogyne cell but without any plasma connection between the two. The changes in the trichogyne described by Stahl and Baur in Collemaceae were not seen in Anaptychia; the peculiar swelling of the septa seems to be a phenomenon confined to gelatinous lichens. During the trichogyne stage in this lichen the vegetative hyphae from the medulla grow up and surround the young carpogonia, and, at the same time, very slender hyphae begin to branch upwards to form the paraphyses.
