Some of the smallstreaming spheres have a vacuole. All three kinds when they areobserved to come to rest assume a uniform retracting appearance andhave a green tint. Although I have not seen the actual separationof one of these smaller bodies, after watching protrusions such as areshown in Fig. 2 (/) and (g), I have no doubt that they are formed bybudding from the large bodies.
