which continue their growth and attach themselves to the substratum with new rhizines. The majority of the heteromerous Lichens possess in the formation of SOREDIA another means of vegetative multiplication. In this process, small groups of dividing gonidia become closely entwined with mycelial hyphae and form small isolated bodies which, on the rupture of the thallus, are - Page 467
