EMBRYOLOGY OF THE MOLE-CRICKET 



527 



Fro. 505. Embryology of the mole-cricket: 1, egg in which the amceboid nuclei (nt>c) are 

 moving toward the surface ; 2, egg in which the nuclei (abc) have reached the surface, and show 

 an active nucleus-formation ; 3, the blastoderm-cells have no nucleus, and are placed at equal distances 

 apart; 4, the blastoderm-cells now forming a continuous layer: r>. cross-section of the egg with 

 blastodermic disk, also showing the disposition of the endodermal cells ; 6, cross-section of the 

 blastodermic disk, with the myoblast cells (mli) already formed ; 7, cross-section through the thorax 

 of the embryo, the body-cavity extended into the limbs. 



nbc, amoeboid blastodermic cells. 

 6c, blastoderm-cells. 

 bl, blastoderm.
