I. Introduction. 



The somewhat heterogeneous studies here brought together have been 

 prosecuted at different times and in different places, as opportunity for 

 getting light on the problem of non-sexual reproduction as exhibited in 

 the group of Bryozoa has presented itself. 



While studies on the fresh water species were pursued chiefly here at 

 Cambridge, those on marine Bryozoa were made while occupying one of 

 the tables of the Museum at the United States Fish Commission Labora-
