 the intra-nuclear network in the cells of the ovules. The nuclei 

 before dividing appear greatly increased in size, with a well- 

 defined network of highly refractive fibres; this network then 

 becomes aggregated at opposite sides of the nucleus, forming two 

 star-shaped masses connected by tine fibre; the latter rupture 

 when the stellate masses become rounded, and form the nuclei of
