I was much surprised to find that the sinus ter-minalis in the operated chicks followed this general rule andbegan to break up into capillaries at about the same time as thenormal.

This was a somewhat ex-treme case and in the same embryo portions of the sinus had notyet begun to break up, although it had extended some distancefrom the embryo after the operation. Figure 1(3 is a cameralucida drawing of the sinus region of a normal chick of the sameage. This drawing more nearly represents the conditions foundin both normal and operated chicks of this age. In operated chicks of seven or eight days of age the sinus ter-minalis had invariably broken up into capillaries, although the DEVELOPMENT OF VESSELS WITH
