A sporangium for androspores..
The androsporangia produce the androspores which are special kinds of zoospores and give rise to the “dwarf males” as in Œdogonium.
The androsporangium is usually produced in the neighbourhood of an oogonium and becomes the mother-cell of a motile ciliated spore known as an androspore, intermediate in size between an antherozoid and a zoogonidium.
The androsporangia are formed in a series by the repeated transverse division of any vegetative cell of a large filament. The contents of each androsporangium are metamorphosed into a single androspore.
