Mnemegenesis (/xi'?//x7/, memory; ye'i-ecris, descent), Hering's 

 explanation of heredity as a form of unconscious organic memory. 

 (Hyatt.) It will be observed that, in this compound, "genesis" is 

 used in a different sense to that which it bears in the rest of Hyatt's 

 coinage. 



Monocyclon, or Monocyclic, is applied to a phylogeny in which only 

 one cycle is observed. (Hyatt.) 



Morphtc [fjL op (pi, form), connected with structure. Instead of 

 morphologic, when incorrectly used in this sense. (Hyatt.) 



Nepiastic, an emendation of the corrupt " nepionic," or 

 "naepionic," of Hyatt; derived from v-qirio^, infant, presumably by 

 way of the rare form, r r;7rta'('oj, I play like a child. It equals 

 " Brephic " of Buckman and Bather. (Schuchert.) 



Nostic (erroneously formed from footo's, a return home), the final 

 stage of dechne. Supplants "Nostologic "(Hyatt), and "Hypostrophic" 

 (Buckman and Bather). (Hyatt.) 



Ontocycle or Ontocyclon, the cycle of individual development. 

 (Hyatt.) 



Orad, towards the mouth opening, when mouth and anus are 

 terminan and opposite. (Schulze.) 



Oran, within the mouth opening, under the same conditions. 

 (Schulze.) 



Paraplasis, decline in Ontogeny, senescence. Supplants " Cata- 

 plasis " (Haeckel). (Hyatt.) 



Puramendian (a mongrel term from Trap a and meridianus), applied 

 to any plane parallel to the meridian or plane of the principal axis in 

 a Syngramma. (Schulze.) 



Paratangential (a mongrel of the same litter), within the body of a 

 Synstigma and at right angles to its radii. (Schulze.) 



Para-type {irapa, alongside of ; tv'tt os, type), applied in zoology to 

 a specimen of the original series forming the basis for the original 

 determination of a species, but not the type, in cases where the author 

 has himself selected a type. (Thomas.) 



Pehpheran, on the periphery of a Syngramma. (Hyatt, 4.) 



Phylocyclc or Phylocyclon, the cycle of development of the race. 

 (Hyatt.) 



Polycyclon or Polycyclic is applied to a phylogeny in which many 

 cycles are observed. Further, the number of cycles may be expressed : 

 thus, the Arietidae, having ten cycles, are Decacyclic. (Hyatt.) 



Psetidosomes {\piv8os, false; a-oifxa, body), bodies corresponding 

 with centrosomes in everything except number, which appear in 

 spermatogenesis of Bvanchipus. (Moore.) 



Sinistran, sinistral, sinistrad, converse of dextran, etc. (^-^O* 

 (Schulze.) 



Statogeny (erroneously for " stasigenesis," o-raVfi, a standing; 

 yt'veo-ts, origin), antithesis oi kinetogeny. (Ryder.)
