Abstract
From all the facts which the study of the Hydroida has made apparent, we may regard it as certain that however long zooidal multiplication may continue, this is not sufficient for the perpetuation of the species, but that a period must at last come in the life of the hydroid when by an act of true sexual reproduction, new individuals are produced for the indefinite extension of the species through time.
