EMBRYOLOGiCAL DEVELOPMENT The early stages of develop- ment of the lungfish (Figure 7-13) are like those of the am- phibian with the exception of the spiral valve, which will be described for the following groups. The liver diverticulum arises early. According to Kerr (1919), one dorsal and right and left ventral pancreatic diverticula appear. The dorsal diverticulum appears first; it is solid in Protoplerus, hollow in Lepidosir

The liver diverticulum arises early. According to Kerr (1919), one dorsal and right and left ventral pancreatic diverticula appear. The dorsal diverticulum appears first; it is solid in Protoplerus, hollow in Lepidosiren. The ventral anlagen appear somewhat later and the two buds meet to fuse at the midline dorsal to the stem of the liver diverticulum. Still later the fused ventral mass grows upward to fuse with the dorsal mass which grows backward within the gut wall. The three ducts are retained in Protoplerus. In JVeoceralodiis the left ventral bud remains rudimentary, and the dorsal part comes to drain through the duct of the right ventral ventricle small intestine testis > terminal intestine urogenital pore bladder (dashed outline) urogenital pore anus Figure 9-13.
