Fig. n. Portion of a transverse section of the male organ of a 
hermaphrodite-male (cf. fig. 7). ca t — ca 6 . Testicular cap- 
sules containing spermatocytes. ca 7 . Testicular capsule 
containing loose spermatocytes. ca s . Capsule containing 
spermatides. ca 9 . Capsule containing spermatides and 
spermatozoa. fe. Follicular epithelium. Zeiss. CC, 1 ; drawn 
in the same way as in fig. 7. 
» 12. Portion of a transverse section through the testes of a 
hermaphrodite-male, showing a young testicular capsule 
(ca x ) containing spermatogons with large nuclei. N, N lf N>. 
Nuclei of the spermatogons; Ni & N 4 are remarkably smaller 
than the three large ones. c« 2 , ca- 6 . Portions of cap- 
sules containing spermatocytes. fe. Follicular epithelium. 
ctm. Connective-tissue membranes enveloping the capsules. 
n. Nuclei of connective-tissue. bl. v. Blood vessel con- 
taining blood-corpuscles. Zeiss. CC, 4; drawn in the same 
way as before. 
» 13. Portion of a section through a testicular capsule, showing 
how nuclei (ec 3 — from the follicular epithelium, may 
be situated amongst the spermatocytes {sp) fe. Follicular 
epithelium. ec. Epithelial cells. ct m. Connective-tissue 
membrane. Zeiss. CC, 4; drawn in the same manner 
as fig. 7. 
» 14. Portion of a section through a testicular capsule of a her- 
maphrodite-male. The capsule contains spermatocytes 
that have already begun to separate. a — h. Spermato- 
cytes, the nuclei of which show various karyokinetic figures. 
fe. Follicular epithelium. 1. Cavity of the capsule, pro- 
bably filled with fluid. ctm. Connective-tissue membrane. 
Zeiss. F, 1. (Flemming's liquid, Safranin). Drawn in the 
same way as before. 
» 15. a — e. Spermatocytes. Zeiss. F, 1 (Flemmings fluid, Sa- 
franin). Drawn in the same way as fig. 7. 
» 16. Various stages in the development of the spermatozoa of 
Myxine; tåken from a transverse section of the testes of 
a hermaphrodite-male. a. Young stage. b—d. Interme- 
diate stages, e. Nearly ripe spermatozoon. f. Spermatozoon 
with peculiar staining. Zeiss. F, 1 (Flemming's fluid; saf- 
ranin) Drawn in the same way as fig. 7.
