The dermal covering consists of the thick outer cuticula , traversed by canals 

 and canalicules ; its superficial layer is the ganoin layer ; then the middle layer 

 crossed in various directions by the chitinous trabeculae containing the lacunae 

 (the outer portion is reticulated, the inner one cancellated); the third or inner 

 layer is composed of trabeculae arranged parallel to the outer surface , horizon- 

 tally laminated and pierced with openings through which nerves and vessels pass 

 to the cancellated layer. A cross section of a trabecula resembles that of a Ha- 

 versian canal. According to the structure of its test Limulus stands intermediate 

 between Cejihalaspis and Pteraspis.
