| Regenerated leg about three-quarters normal size; nor- 
r mally jointed; -articles down to coxa all reduced in 
j size. 
Regenerated leg only very slightly smaller than normal. 
Fig. 2. Argas persicus, second stage nymph from Experiment 8, showing regeneration 
after removal respectively of— (A) claw, (B) tarsus, and (C) two, (D) three, (E) four 
and (F) five distal articles of second right leg. In every case the corresponding 
appendage of the opposite side is shown. (D) represents an abnormal type of regene¬ 
ration. Magnifications : A, B, C, E, F x 22 ; D x 33. 
On comparing the results of this experiment with those of the 
preceding ( d ), although an additional article was removed in (e), yet. 
we find that the extent of regeneration in the latter case is distinctly 
greater (Fig. 2, E).
