I. GENERAL SUBJECTS. 
Farmer & Moore (187). — Essential similarity in process of chromosome 
reduction ; Moore (467). — Similarity in reproductive processes, alternation 
of generations ; Beard (26, 27, 28) ; Beard & Murray (29). — Plants 
have in vegetative state a cellulose investment : animals, a proteid invest- 
ment, potential or actual ; Arthur (12). — Animals and plants : Animals 
take part of their food in the form of concrete particles, which are lodged 
in the cell protoplasm by the activity of the protoplasm itself. Plants 
obtain all their food in either the liquid or gaseous form by osmosis ; 
Minot (460). — Flowers and insects : history of the subject; Loew (408). 
— Observations ; Knuth (347). — How flowers attract insects, experiments ; 
Plateau (527). See also Record xm, Insecta , p. 89. 
5. Protoplasm and the Cell. 
a. Protoplasm . 
General discussion of protoplasm ; Delage (145). — Structure of proto- 
plasm ; Quincke (542). — On the structure of protoplasm : an hypothesis 
of vortices ; Tsciiermak (699). — Modern theories of protoplasm : the 
epongioplasm ; Unna (702). — Organic structure ; Dreyer (157). — 
Spontaneous formation of foam-like or vesicular structures; Quincke 
(542). — The fundamental substance of protoplasm ; Danilewsky (134). 
— On the protoplastid body and the metaplastid cell ; Moore (468). — 
Protoplasmic granulations in Ciliata ; Monti (463, 464). — Protoplasm, in 
its outer cytoplasmic sheath, not readily permeable by many crystalloids. 
This a condition of the high osmotic pressure. Experiments showing 
permeability by simple alcohols, ether, chloroform, simple aldehydes, 
acetone, etc. Application to physiology ; Overton (505). — Webbed 
vacuolar structure of plasm : streaming of two plasmic fluids, &c., in 
Calcituba ; Sciiaudinn (625). — Protoplasm, properties of ; Sachs (609). 
— Limits of divisibility of living matter ; Loeb (398, 399). — Action of 
bases on protoplasm ; Bokorny (50). — Immortality of protoplasm ; 
Sabatier (606). 
Stimulus exerted by pseudopodia in contact. Behaviour of excised 
pseudopodia. Qualitative (chemical) differences between cells of same 
species, and experiments with Orbitolites and Amphiategina ; Jensen 
(330).

— General discussion of the cell ; Delage (145). — Structure of the 
cell ; Humphrey (319), Ziegler (770). — General evolution of the cell ; 
Valenti (704). 
Inadequacy of cell-theory ; Exaggeration of the apartness of cell- 
units, Mesenchyme not composed of separate branched cells, but has 
rather a spongy or reticulate structure, and is continuous both with ecto-
