ORGANIZATION OF PRIMITIVE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM 409 



inhibitory and excitatory transmitter substances on crustacean heart ganglion 

 cells is an example of such a chemically addressed system. The histology of 

 typical invertebrate ganglia is discussed with reference to the suggested 

 mechanisms of the preservation of labelled lines during transmission.
