The remaining contents arrange themselves as a deeply staining granular mass on one side of the membrane, and later on as a somewhat stellate figure: the two stages forming what were spoken of as the granular and stellate varieties of nucleus.
Beneath the denser part of the mesoblast, and attached to the epiblast, a portion composed of stellate cells may in the majority of instances be recognized, especially in the front part of the primitive streak.
Nearly the whole of the hypoblast in front of the primitive streak has now undergone a differentiation into stellate cells.
We believe these stellate cells to be in the main directly derived from the more granular cells of the previous stage.

Typical examples of this form of modified nucleus, which may be spoken of as the stellate variety, are represented on Pl.
They bear a very close resemblance to the arborescent frost flowers seen on window panes in winter, and to the stellate snow crystals.
Some of the emperors wore crowns on occasion, as Caligula and Domitian, at the games, and stellate or spike crowns are depicted on the heads of several of the emperors on their coins, but no idea of imperial sovereignty was indicated thereby.
