Extract

During the last eighty years the Mycetozoa have attracted the attention of numerous investigators, largely on account of the striking differences in structure which are exhibited at successive stages in the life-history. The fact that during the early stages of their development they consist of naked masses of protoplasm and closely resemble certain lowly animal forms, while later on in the sporangial condition they assume plant-like characters, has given rise to numerous discussions as to their position in the classification of living organisms.
