1. The process of nuclear fusion and reorganization as it occurs in members of the Bacteriaceae is described.

2. The chromosomes behave as pairs at all times, the normal bacillus, of smooth morphology, contains two pairs.

3. The fusion nucleus contains three pairs and is preceded by a corresponding trinucleate bacillus.

4. One division of the chromosomes takes place in the fusion nucleus, and another during the process of redistribution of the chromosomes. The second division is followed by fragmentation, and return to the bacillary condition.
