the Orange “ Elf-cup," spores are borne on the inner and upper 
surface only. 
One of the Mycetozoa (Tubina cylindrica) is shown on Page 64. 
This curious group of organisms occupies the border-land between 
the animal and vegetable kingdoms. During one stage of its 
existence the example shown consists of a jelly-like mass of pro- 
toplasm, which creeps over the surface of rotten wood in search of 
food. When the fiuiting period arrives the protoplasm becomes 
condensed into small cylindrical masses of a pink colour, closely 
packed together, which in a few hours become transformed into 
reddish brown capsules of minute spores. The photograph was 
taken while this change was proceeding.
