ZYGNEMACER. V7 
In certain of the species of this genus the zy gospores are produced in 
the conjugating canal, and in other species in one or other of the con- 
Jugating cells. This fact is taken advantage of in the following arrange- 
ment :— 
A. Zygospores produced in conjugating canal. 
* Sporoderm scrobiculate. 
1. Zygnema pectinatum, Ag. 
** Sporoderm even. 
2. Zygnema Ralfsii, Kutz. 
3. Zygnema parvulum, Kutz. 
B. Zygospores produced in one or other of the conjugating cells, 
* Sporoderm punctate. 
4, Zygnema cruciatum (Vauch.). 
5. Zygnema stellinum (Vauch.). 
6. Zygnema Vaucherii, Ag. 
7. Zygnema anomalum (Hass.). 
¥* Sporoderm even, 
8. Zygnema leiospermum, De Bary. 
9. Zygnema insigne, Kutz. 
A. Zygospores produced in conjugating canal, 
Zygnema pectinatum. 4g. Syst. p. 78. 
Sterile cells 1-2 times as long as broad. 
Zygospore globose or broadly elliptic, dark olive, scrobicu- 
late, formed in the canal of conjugation. 
Sizz. Cells -03--035 mm. diam. (sometimes less), zygospore

As noted above, we include here three of Hasgsall’s species of Tynda-
