fpiral Lines. The Figures of thefe Animal- 
cules when playing in the Water are fhewn 
2 2 : and it is very common, in this and every 
other Kind of the Clujlering Polypes , for the 
little Animals either to detach themfelves 
or be broken off by fome Violence from their 
Pedicles ; the Appearance of fuch deferted 
Pedicles, which have no longer any Motion 
or Ufe, is reprefented 3 35 and their Ap¬ 
pearance is much the fame in every other 
Species. 
A fingle Animalcule with its two remark¬ 
able Arms is £hewn, greatly enlarged, at N° 
v. The Diameter of its Superficies next the 
Eye being magnified about 400 Times, and 
confequently the whole fuperficial Area of 
one of its Sides (which is all the Eye can 
command at once) 160000 Times; accord- 
in £ to which Calculation its Bulk would be

magnified 64000000 Times. 
Thofe Animalcules of the fame Species, 
hanging by their Pedicles, N° vn. are mag¬ 
nified in their Diameter about 40 Times, 
1600 Times in their Superficies next the Eye, 
and in their Bulk 64000 Times.—All the 
other Species of Clujlering Polypes expreffed 
in this Plate are magnified nearly in the fame 
* When an Animalcule is feparated from its Clufier, it 
fwims about in the Water, until it fallens its little Pedicle to 
fomewhat; and it can detach itfelf again and feek fome other 
Situation fo long as it continues lingle; but after it begins to 
multiply, the Pedicle never loo fens itfelf again, none but
