IV. Compare Kerne r and Oliver, Volume I, Part i, 

 p. 209, Fig. 48. 



VI. Species of Dodder (Cuscuta} are common all over 

 the country. Material is best when fresh or preserved in 

 formalin, but may also be dried and soaked out again. 



VIII. The Bread-Mould is a very good example of a 

 saprophyte and also of a group of plants of which we have, 

 as yet, had no example in our work ; viz. of flowerlcss- 

 or spore-plants. The Coral Roots (species of Coral- 

 lorhiza) are fairly widely distributed and may be studied. 

 The Indian Pipe (Monotropa) is perhaps more properly 

 a parasite upon a mould. The insectivorous plants treated 

 under the next chapter are also saprophytes, but as they 

 obtain their organic materials in an entirely different way, 

 they are not included here. The teacher, however, should 

 call the attention of the students to this fact.
