Before long I hope to carry out some investigations on living material ; 

 and also to extend the research to the ovaries of allied plants. The only one 

 of thèse, which, owing to the time of year, I hâve been able to procure as 

 yet, Hyacinthas orientalis albulus, was forced in a green house, and shows 

 in the hair-cells of à mature ovary, and in some other cells of the ovarian 

 wall cubical crystalloids like those of the potato tuber, but I hâve not had 

 the opportunity of investigating the history of thèse crystalloids as yet. 



In conclusion I gladly avail myself of this opportunity to acknowledge 

 my deep obligation to D r Gustav Mann for his constant and invaluable help 

 throughout the préparation of this paper.
