    LIST OF PLATES PLACED AT THE END OF THE VOLUME I. Illustrations of the minute structure of the protoplasm and the pseudo- podia of Gromia Dujardini M. Schultze. II. The minute structure of the protoplasm and pseudopodia of Foramini- fera (Figs. 1-6) and Ameebce (Figs. 7 and 8). III. Illustrations of the pseudopodia of Foraminifera (Figs. 1-4) and the body protoplasm of Acineta (Fig. 5). IV. Illustrations of the minute structure of Foraminifera (Figs. 1 and 2), Amcebce (Figs. 3 and 4), and Ciliata (Figs. 5-8), and of vegetable protoplasm (Fig. 9). V. Illustrations of the minute structure of the ova of a sea-urchin, Sphcer- echinus (Fig. 1, a-c), of the protoplasm of Thalassicolla (Fig. 2, a and b) and Chilomonas (Fig. 3), and of oil-foams (Figs. 4 and 5). VI. The minute structure of oil-foams (Figs. 1 and 2) and of an epidermic cell of Lumbricus (Fig. 3), a fat cell of Blatta (Fig. 4), and the epi- dermis of Gammarus. VII. The protoplasm of various tissue cells ; liver cells of the frog (Fig. 1); peritoneal cell (Fig. 2), epidermis and cuticle (Fig. 3, a-c) of BrancMobdella; egg (Fig. 4) and ciliated cells (Fig. 5) of Hydatina; pigment cell of Aulastomum (Fig. 6), and nerve fibre of Astacus (Fig- 7). VIII. The minute structure of the protoplasm of ganglion cells and axis- cylinders from the frog (Fig. 1), calf (Fig. 2), and earthworm (Fig. 3); and of connective tissue cells from the frog (Fig. 4). IX. The minute structure of capillaries, ganglion cells, and axis-cylinders ; a capillary (Fig. 1), a process of a ganglion cell (Fig. 2), and an axis- cylinder (Fig. 3) from the calf, and transverse sections of axis-cylin-
