A Short Explanation of the TABLES. 
&k Hairs covering the body. I here reprefent 
but thofe that grow on the back and abdo- 
men, to avoid the neceflity of making the 
figure bigger than nature. 
FIG. VL 
The exuvia, or caft fhins, and pulmonary tubes 
_ caft off by the Coffus. 
aaa Nine twifted little threads of the pulmo- 
nary tubes, appearing in one fide of the caft 
fkin, rolled off from the body through the 
breathing holes, at the time the Worm un- 
dergoes this mutation ; accordingly all their 
extremities lie in a direction towards the fore 
end of the body, as the fkin at this time falls 
off in a contrary direction from the hinder 
end. 
6b Two fmaller branches of the pulmonary 
tubes, one at each fide of the body. Tho’ 
thefe branches do not perforate or pafs thro’ 
the fkin, neverthelefs as they are faftened to 
it, they come away at the fametime. One 
of thefe branches is divided into fome fill 
{maller ramifications ; the other appears €x- 
actly in the condition, in which with the 
other nine it fell naturally from the body. 
¢¢ec Some branches and {maller ramifications 
of the nine pulmonary tubes of the other 
fide, a little folded out. 
123 The fkull, which at this time divides 
into three parts. : 
dd ‘The caft teeth, which are hollow. 
e The caft lip. 
Ff The horns, which are likewife renewed. 
&g The two other. remaining parts of the 
parted fkull. They are hollow, and of a 
fomewhat fpherical form. 
4 Six openings in the fkin, that formerly con- 
tained the new legs. 
# The hinder part of the fkin folded up.

‘The fibres ferving to move the rings, 
Hal Gres VELL 
The heart of the Coffus. 
a ‘The heart refembling a membranaceous tube. 
6 The narroweft part of the heart, feated near 
the head. 
¢ Two dilatations of the heart. 
d That part of the heart, which lies within the 
laft rings of the body, and is very flender, 
FIG. IX, 
The fat, compofed of globules, like the grains of 
Sand,

The fat examined by the Microfcope, 
aa The tranfparent membranaceous founda- 
tion of the fat cell. 
6b Some pulmonary tubes diftributed through 
the fat. a 
ce Globular and oily particles of fat, which 
float, as it were, in other membranaceous, 
globular, and irregular particles, fo as to 
. make it probable that this fat confifts of 
bladders. 
FIG. XI. and XII. 
The ftomach, and adjacent parts. 
aaaa Vhe diffected {kin of the Coffus. 
6 The gullet. ¢ The upper part of the ftomach. 
dd Appendages of the ftomach, in the fhape 
of teeth, feated about the upper end of the 
ftomach, and divided both above and be- 
low, into rows. 
1 2 The two upper rows in their natural fitu- 
ation. Fug. XII. ¢. All the fix upper rows 
of the appendages, as well thofe belonging 
to the upper, as thofe belonging to the lower 
region are here exhibited, but as they appear 
when taken out of the body. 
12 ‘Two of the rows already exhibited, in an 
inverted fituation, as they naturally lie with 
their points dire€ted towards the infeé’s 
head. 
3 4 Two lower rows in the fame direction: 
56 The two laft rows of the appendages, ad- 
hering to the lower region of the ftomach, 
with their points directed backwards. 
J A future on the lower furface of the ftomach, 
in fome meafure refembling that of the peri- 
toneum. 
g Some other appendages of the ftomach, lying’ 
lower down than thofe already taken notice 
of, with their points directed backwards. 
h The hinder part of the ftomach. 
21 ‘The loweft appendages, which appear as it 
were in the bottom of the ftomach. Thefe 
appendages are directed towards the head. 
kkkk The vafa varicofa, or the {wollen guts 
of the ftomach, placed on the upper and 
lower parts of it, and on each fide, and 
forming a moft beautiful appearance. 
/ The pylorus with the flender gut, which 
{prings from the ftomach. This part the 
antients call Ecphyfis. 
m The colon. 
an Pulmonary tubes running from the laft 
pair of breathing holes towards the ftomach, 
and branching into a great many ramifica- 
tions, that are diftributed over the ftomach, 
the colon, and the ftraight gut. 
9000 The other fixteen breathing holes, in 
their natural fituation, as they appear thro’ 
the fkin. 
p The ftraight gut, difplaced.
