CHROMOSOMES OF THE REDUVIIDAE 347 



be the case in all forms. However, it seems to me that Will, and 

 Foot and Strobell have failed to demonstrate conclusively that 

 the ova arise from the small nuclei of zone C. At least I do not 

 believe they have figured uninterrupted stages of transition from 

 one to the other and unless it be actually demonstrated that 

 these small nuclei give rise to developing ova, it matters not so 

 far as theories of heredity and chromosomal continuity are con- 

 cerned, whether they arise by mitosis or amitosis. Further, I 

 do not believe they have exhausted the possibility of the young 

 oocytes being present among the large nuclei of zone B.
