Description

G. K. VINE ON THE WENLOCK POLYZOA.
Pies. 11-13. — Ptilodictva Lonsdalei, Vine.
m
11. Section nearly parallel to the central axis, showing the marginal cells, and
tbe compressed perpendicular cell

X 20.
12. A portion of the same, further enlarged

X 40.
13. A portion of the non-poriferous margin of another section

X 40.
Localities. Though rare in some of the washings, more or less
abundant in all the shales below the Wenlock Limestone. Very
rare, though I have found a few fragments, in the shales No. 46
over the Wenlock Limestone.
Affinities. This species resembles to some extent P.flagellum, Nich.
(Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. March 1875, pi. xiv. figs. 3, 3 6 ), except in the
fiexuous character of .the base. There is a slight difference in the
measurements of the two species

and Nicholson does not allude to
any distal openings, while these are a marked feature in P. Lonsdalei.
I have not specimens for comparison

but I have not the least doubt
that it will be found that the Llandovery and Wenlock P. lanceo-
lata may be placed here. My only objection to describing the frag-
ments as typical of Lonsdale's species is that the Wenlock Limestone
type is altogether different and considerably larger. Under these
circumstances 1 dedicate the species to Lonsdale's memory.
In the description of this type I have indicated the function of
the " non-poriferous margins " of Ptilodictya by speaking of them
as the "endocystal layers." Taking the endocyst and the ectocyst
together, the latter being only a structureless excretion from the
endocyst charged with a protective function

  • ,

it may be well to direct
attention to this physiological feature. I have ascertained that the
enlargement of the colony of Ptilodictya takes place at the distal
openings and also at the margins. After a time enlargement at the
distal openings becomes abortive, and these indications of a function
remain as ornaments only. It is different on the margins

here
life is more active, and enlargements take place on the younger por-

Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.
