am acquainted has been described by Bolsius and Graf in the ncnh 

 ridial cells of leeches as shown in Fig. 19 (from a preparation by 

 Dr. Arnold Graf). The meshwork is here of great di.stinctness and 

 regularity, and scattered microsomes are found along its threads. It

 The nucleus contains a single intensely chromatic nucleolus, and a paler linin-network with 

 rounded chromatin-granules. The cytoplasmic fibrillae are faintly shown passing out into the 

 nerve-process below. (They are figured as far more distinct by Flemming.) Tlie dark cyto- 

 plasmic masses are the deeply staining " chromophiiic granules" (.N'issi) of unknown function.

appears with equal clearness, though in a somewhat different form, 

 in many eggs, where the meshes are rounded and often contain food- 

 matters or deutoplasm in the inter-spaces (Figs. 59, 60). In cartilage- 

 cells and connective tissue-cells, where the threads can be plainly seen
