In the succeeding stages (Figs. 4c, d) and intracapsular veliger is gradually developed; by then, the embryos show the appearance of the shell and foot and the velar lobes are partially expanded. The embryo is now clearly divided into head (anterior to the shell), foot (ventrally), and visceral hump (covered by the shell) ; nurse eggs ingested still obscure details of internal structure (Fig. 4e).
