Page 183 - Leidy, in his late work on the Rhizopods, gives his opinion that the rays of the Actinophrys are simply gelatinous pseudopodia, of the same substance as the body, and without any solidified skeleton. The evidence for this he finds in the bending of the rays, under the force of a current, like grass in a rivulet. I have frequently observed this bending, but * Read before the Microscopical Section of the AAAS, at the Cincinnati meeting.
