Figures 1-23. Sketches of embryos or parts at various stages. Mostly taken from 



freshly killed specimens. Figs. 1 to 8, 11-23, X50; Fig. 9, X300; Fig. 



10, XIOO. 

 Figure 16. Side view of stage like 6 or 7. Fig. 17. Side of 8. 

 Figure 18 of 11 or 12. Fig. 19 of 13. Fig. 20 of 14. Fig. 21 of 15. 

 Figure 24. Sketch of an early stage of preserved egg. The cells are indicated as they 



show on the surface of the yolk. Near the center is a half ring of telo- 



blast cells. 

 Figure 26. Lower end of an early embryo, showing teloblast cell areas. The six cen- 

 tral cell rows are those which go to form the nervous system in part.
