Or 14 hours was grown fo large, that you might fee 2 Horns 
Upon it. 
In the fpace of 24 hours, the laft mentioned Ammalctilfim 
had acquired 4 Horns, one of which was fm^il, the fecond 
bigger, and tlie 2 others very large, and thefe 2 laft were 
more ftrongly protruded and contrafted than the others. 
Three hours after the little AmtHnlculum was got clear of his 
Mother. 
I endea vour'd to purfue my difcovery of the Generation of 
thefe Creatures, and in order thereto wiped off the Green 
Weeds from the ^ody, that I might make my obfervations 
the better, but the AnimaUulum was not only dead, but 
his Horns and part of the Body was quite wafted. 
Another Anmdmlum that had brought forth two young 
ones, had her Body laden with another fort of little Crea- 
tures,, whofe (hw^pe was flat beneath and round above, and 
which I have obferved in moft Waters 5 and this laft fort 
were above a thoufand times lefs than the others whom they 
crawl'd upon, and hindered to go 3 but a much bigger Ani^ 
mdcnlum, vvhofe body was almoft round,tormented one of the 
oforefaid Creatures, not only by running upon its Body, but 
by clinging fo faft to one of its Horns, that whatever effort 
t other made to be rid of it, (he could not (hake it off her Bo- 
dy, and at laft I found (he^iad loft one of her Horns in the, 
feuffle, , 
That which feem'd very remarkable, and even wonderful 
tome, was that the faid Ammdcula would fometimes extend 
their Horns to fo great a length, that looking on them thro 
the Microfcope, you would think they were feveral fathoms 
long. I Gaus'd the Limner to view the manner of the extenfi- 
on and coiitmaion of the Horns, who was amaz'd as well 
as I to fee the fame. 
I made himalfodefigna fmall part of the Horn fo extend- 
ed as well as he was able, as you may fee in Fig. 11. n, o, p, 
wherein alfo are to be obferved the knotty Protuberances, as 
as in Fig) ic. k, 1, ra. Thefe Protuberanc<^s feem to becom-
