The walls of the tracheae are composed of three layers, which correspond to the layers of the body-wall ; in fact the tracheae are invaginations of the body- wall. The continuity of the membranes of the tracheae and body-wall is shown diagrammat- ically in Figure i. It should be observed that it is the inner layer of the wall of the tracheae that corresponds with the outer layer of the wall of the body. This inner layer of the wall of the trachea, the intima, like the cuticle, is chitinous, and is shed from the tracheae with the cuticle when the insect molts. This layer of the trachea is furnished with thickenings, which FIG. i.—Section of trachea and body-wall, c, cuticle ; hy^ hypo- dermis ; sp, spiral thickening of the intima. The third layer is a delicate membrane bounding the ental ends of the hypoder- mal cells ; this is the basement membrane.
