In order to get analyses which give true figures of the real 
circumstances I have made the analyses in the following Way; 
the plant was pulled up and the roots and rhizoma examined — 
submerged in water — for cocoons. 
When åa cocoon was found the analysis apparatus was held 
in the, water and the air from the cocoon squeezed up in the 
funnel and analysed. 
Thereupon an analysis of the air in the intercellular spaces 
was made, the air being procured either by cutting the root 
through, where the cocoon had been attached, or by squeezing it 
out trough the hole made by the larva in order to bring about 
communication between the cocoon and the intercellular spaces. 
As the root during these two analyses was lying in the water 
in intact state the analyses are, according to. the analyses on p. 61 
in agreement with the real circumstances. 
Of my analyses I shall mention the following:
