F, emission of spermatozoa, e, entocodon; sp, spadix. contracts in a regular manner, with an amplitude indicated by the arrows in Figure 3C. In the later stages (Fig. 3D) the dilatation and contraction is more obvious in the short stalk of the gonophore, the growing mass of male germ cells possibly inhibiting or at least reducing the freedom of movement of the spadix wall Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ); Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ).
