Table 2

according to Bischoff the growth of the dog's ovum is as follows :

Diameter of ovum in mm. 0.15 0.14 0.14 0.16 0.16 0.18 0.20 0.21 Age in days 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Diameter of ovum in mm. 0.28 0.30 1.0 2.0 3.0 4.0 5.0 5.0 6.0 Age in days 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 16.5 Twelve days after copulation are required before the ovum is as large as Peters 's and thirteen days before it is as large as Merttens's. When it is recg^lled that Merttens's ovum was scraped out of the uterus twenty-one days after the beginning of the last period we are inclined to believe that sixteen to twenty-one days represents its true age. Peters 's ovum, on the other hand, must be over ^Three or four days old"; fifteen is much more nearly its correct age.

Together there are over 1000 measurements, of which over 500 have data relating to the age. Fully half of both these are from my own collection.
