✦ Synopsis

The studies of Van Beneden (1875)' on the maturation division of the rabbit ovum, laid the foundations for similar investigations in other mammals. Since this early investigation major contributions to the problems of polar body formation were made by Sobotta (1895) and Kirkham ( '06)' in the mouse; Moore ( '08)' in the guinea pig; Van der Stricht ( '23)' in the bat; Sobotta and Burckhard ( '11)' and Kirkham and Burr ( '13)' in the r a t ; Longley ( '11)' in the cat; Hartman and Corner ( '41) in the monkey; Thomson ( '19)' Hoadley and Simons ( 'as),
