Extract
Egg.—Nearly spherical, a little higher than broad, somewhat flattened at base and slightly depressed at top; surface smooth; crossed near the top—at about one fifth distance from top to base—by two to four parallel rows of raised points, about 22 in the full circle; these seem to be placed in vertical lines; in some examples the rows are nearer together than in others, and there is oftern irregularity in the number or position of the points, some of the series wanting, or misplaced, in this last case lying between the rows. Color pale green. Duration of this stage four to five days.
