Fig. 9. Buccal ganglia in situ, seen obliquely from below and 

 the right side, es., cut end of esophagus; s. gl., right 

 salivary gland, its severed distal end bent forward and 

 to the right ; buc. g., buccal ganglia ; c. b. con., cerebro-

 margin of plate, x 137.

 tal ganglion; /. v. g., left visceral ganglion; pi. par. 

 con., right pleuro-parietal connective; pi. v. con., left 

 pleuro-visceral connective; r. p. I., ist parietal, or vulvar 

 nerve; ia., its branch forming an anastomosis with the 

 branch of the 3rd pedal nerve supplying the Organ of 

 Bohadsch ; r. p. 2, second parietal, or osphradio-ctenidial 

 nerve ; /. v. i, first visceral nerve to vesicle of Swammer- 

 dam, the spermatocyst ; /. v. 2, second visceral nerve; 

 /. v. 30,., and /. v. ^b., the two main branches of the
