Haeckel, Ernst
Radiolaria
_g_, A spherical coenobium or jelly-colony; _a_, large
alveoles, forming a cortical zone; _c_, central
capsules; _k_, oil-globules.
Fig. 7. _Collozoum vermiforme_, n. sp., × 100 27
_c_, A single isolated central capsule; _x_, xanthellæ
surrounding this central capsule; _k_, oil-globules;
_n_, nuclei.
Fig. 8. _Collozoum ellipsoides_, n. sp., × 2 26
A spherical colony; the red points are central capsules.
Fig. 9. _Collozoum ellipsoides_, n. sp., × 150 26
_c_, A single isolated central capsule; _k_, oil-globules;
_n_, nuclei.
Fig. 10. _Collozoum inerme_, Hkl., × 2 25
An old, cylindrical, articulated coenobium; the red points
are centralcapsules.
Fig. 11. _Collozoum inerme_, Hkl., × 2 25
A young cylindrical coenobium; the red points are central
capsules.
Fig. 12. _Collozoum inerme_, Hkl., × 400 25
A piece of a young colony with eight small central
capsules, without oil-globules. _n_, The central
nucleus in different stages of division. Two capsules
are also dividing. _x_, Xanthellæ in the jelly-like
calymma (blue), which also contains numerous vacuoles.

PLATE 4.
LEGION SPUMELLARIA.
Orders BELOIDEA.
Families Sphærozoida.
Fig. 1. _Sphærozoum trigeminum_, n. sp., × 50 43
An annular colony. The main mass of the jelly-colony is
filled up by large alveoles; the entire surface is
densely covered with spicula, and beyond this
skeleton-cover lie the spherical central capsules, each
with an oil-globule. This species is by mistake not
mentioned in the text.
Fig. 2. _Sphærozoum alveolatum_, n. sp., × 50 43
Section through a spherical colony; displaying the inside
of a hemisphere. All the central capsules lie in a
single stratum on the surface of the jelly-sphere, each
being surrounded by a thick-walled alveole. The spicula
lie between the alveole and the capsule, which includes
a central oil-globule.
Fig. 3. _Sphærozoum alveolatum_, n. sp., × 400 43
A single central capsule, filled up by crystal-spores.
Numerous geminato-radiate spicula and spherical
xanthellæ lie between the capsule and the including
thick-walled alveole. In the jelly-calymma, between the
capsule and the alveole, numerous thin ramified
pseudopodia are expanded.
Fig. 4. _Sphærozoum geminatum_, n. sp., × 400 45
A single central capsule, with a central oil-globule,
surrounded by numerous spicula and spherical xanthellæ.
The jelly-substance of the calymma is expanded between
the points of the spicula.
