| No. of Experi- ment. |
Result. |
| A.—Section of tips of distal pinnules of distal pinnæ . | |
| 1 | Action in that pinna; slight action in its secondary pulvinus; action in the pri- mary pulvinus, but depression somewhat obstructed mechanically; no further result. |
| 2 | Action in that pinna; no further result. |
| 3 | Pause; action in the primary pulvinus; centripetal action in that pinna; cen- trifugal action almost to the tip of the other distal pinna; no further result. |
| 4 | Slow action in that pinna, imperfect towards the base; action in the primary pul- vinus; slight action in the bases of two other pinnæ; no further result. |
| 5 | Progressive, complete action in that pinna; no further result; primary pulvinus readily responsive to mechanical impulse; re-expansion very rapid. |
| 6 | Progessive, complete action to nearly the base of that pinna; no further result primary pulvinus readily responsive to mechanical impulse. |
| 7 | Pause; full action in the primary pulvinus; spreading, complete, centripetal action in that pinna; no further result. |
| 8 | Very slow and imperfect action in that pinna; no further result; primary pulvinus readily responsive to mechanical impulse. |
| 9 | Pause; action in the primary pulvinus; action in the cut pinna; no further result. |
| 10 | Slow and almost complete action in that pinna; pause; action in the primary pulvinus; no further result. |
| B.—Section of tips of proximal pinnules of proximal pinnæ . | |
| 11 | Pause; action in the primary pulvinus; slow, slight, imperfect action in the bases of both proximal pinnæ; no further result. |
| 12 | Pause; commencing centrifugal action in the base of that pinna; action in the primary pulvinus; completed centrifugal action in that pinna; incomplete action in the base of two, and complete action in the base of the third remain- ing pinna. |
| 13 | Pause; incomplete action in the base of that pinna; incomplete action in the basal halves of the other pinnæ; no further result; primary pulvinus readily responsive to mechanical impulse. |
