The walls of the nephrotome close over each glomerulus, and are hence- forth known as Bowman's capsule, while the whole complex of capsule and glomerulus form a Malpighian body or corpuscle. The mesonephric tubule opens into Bowman's capsule by means of an inner nephrostome, while the lower portion of the nephro-.
