The cord is undoubtedly to be interpreted as a nutritive adaptation which arises in the marsupium during the early stages of gravidity, since the young em...bryos are at first contained in an unformed viscid matrix and the cords are a later product. The whole history of this exceptional species warrants a more detailed study, and Miss Young is now engaged in such an investigation. When her work is completed we hope that it may include the entire course of development, the method of formation of the cords, and the rearing of the young mussels during a much longer period than has thus far been possible. V. ATTEMPT TO REAR GLOCHIDIA IN CULTURE MEDIA. Since the relation of the glochidium to the fish is essentially a nutritive one, it seemed to us that it should be possible to rear the larvae through the metamorphosis artificially, provided a suitable nutritive medium could be found, and accordingly a series of experiments, with this object in view, were undertaken at our suggestion by one of our students, Mr.
