 bryo. The so called plug region is grooved. 



Fig. 51. Representation of the third section behind the dorsal notochordal 

 opening of the embryo seen in surface view in Fig. 13, Plate III. 



Fig. 52. Third section anterior to the dorsal notochordal opening of the em- 

 bryo seen in surface view in Fig. n, Plate III. The halves of 

 the anterior lip are still fusing.
