Zoology Department University of Allahabad (India) INTRODUCTION My work on the oogenesis of certain Indian snakes revealed many points of interest not the least interesting of which has been the phenomenon of the transference of Golgi bodies from the theca and the follicular epithelium cells to the egg. [...] The aim of the F. 210 THE ALLAHABAD UNIVERSITY STUDIES present paper is to add to the types in which 4he infiltration of (I olgi bodies from the theca he follicular epithelium cells to the egg has been observed. and to indicate so far as possible the manner and the significance of the process. [...] In all of them infiltration becomes active and marked in certain stages in the development of the oocyte and the onset of the phenomenon is noticed specially in the later stages. [...] In the absence of the zone radiate the infiltration is wholesale and the amount of the Golgi bodies passed is excessive. [...] 4. The tendency of the Golgi bodies to aggregate closely in groups or in patches of diotyosomes in the periphery of the oocyte was equally noticeable in the follicular epithelium cell.
