 of a slightly later embryo than Fig. 27. som. m. Somatic mesoderm. 

 ee. Ectoderm. mem. ex. Membranous envelope. sp. m. Splanchnic meso- 

 derm, cav. in mes. Cavity in mesoderm. (Zeiss, D.)

 to show ventral flexure. sp. m. Splanchnic mesoderm, som. m.'^ Somatic 

 mesoderm, v.f. Ventral flexure. (Zeiss, f.)

 Fig. 29, to show ventral flexure, ee. Ectoderm, mes. Mesoderm, v.f. Ven- 

 tral flexure.

Fig. 32. — Ventral part of a transverse section through an embryo of the 

 eleventh day, to show the nerve-cord and the Malpighian tubes. Tliis section 

 is taken in the posterior region, about the sixth segment, som. mes. Somatic

 embryo, to show the stomodaeum. sub. gl. Subtesophageal ganglion, supraoe. 

 Supracesophageal ganglion, st. Stomodseum. In this section the supra- and 

 sub-oesophageal ganglia are not cut exactly in the middle line, and so appear 

 smaller than they really are. (Zeiss, d.)

 directly from the endoderm. 



All the figures were drawn by myself under a Zeiss's camera lucida.
