62 THE ORIGIN OF LIFE 



isms taken from others that had been heated to 

 130 and 135 C. 



I have also separated the illustrations of organ- 

 isms taken from tubes containing the yellow 

 solution from those of organisms found in the 

 colourless solutions, and it may be recognised that 

 those from the former have, on the whole, been 

 (while also more abundant) distinctly more varied 

 in nature. 



The organisms that were found in the experi- 

 ments made in 1906 were in part similar to those 

 now shown, but were in part different, as an ex- 

 amination of the Plates in my work The Evolution 

 of Life will show. Some of the organisms found 

 then, and shown in Figs. 8, 10, 30, seem not to 

 have been previously known. Now also in Plate 

 2, Figs. 12, 13, something equally unfamiliar is 

 represented, although such bodies have been very 

 frequently met with in some of the yellow solutions.
