Such are the observations of Metsehni- koff on the development of Sycon. According to the ob- servations of Barrois, the larva or gastrula fixes itself by what are destined to be the ectodermal cells, and which are the round non-ciliated cells forming the posterior end (Fig. 31, C) of the free-swimming gastrula. About this time the mesoderm separates from the endoderm, either before or just after the gastrula becomes stationary, according to the group to which it belongs. When the young sponge becomes stationary it does not differ from the gastrula, except that it becomes more or less.

Then appear the food or digestive cavi- ties in the endoderm, in Sycandra becoming radiating tubes lined with ciliated, collared, monad-like cells ; or in Leucon and HalicJiondria, and their allies, forming scattered pock- ets, called " aOTj3M?Zaceo?^s ; Inmost sponges (except some calcareous 'species) there is no general body-cavity in the gastrula, nor in the young after the larva becomes sta- tionary, according to Barrois. After the formation of the ampullaceous sacs the pores open through the mesoderm and connect the sacs and ciliated channels, as the case may.
