The teeth of the outer peristome are formedby thickenings, or plates, laid down on the inner and outer faces of the outer wall of a layer of cells extend-ing around the capsule; these thickenings are continued along the top and bottom walls of these cells to formthe transverse bars or trabecula;. The inner wall of this same layer of cells becomes thickened to form theinner peristome. 3 shows one-
