The ring canal and the ring of the blood system lie on the lantern, the stone canal and septal organ ('heart') extending upwards from them (fig. 303). The blood-vascular ring gives off two blood-vessels which run along the alimentary canal, while from the ring canal arise five ambu- lacral or radial canals which run on the inner side of the test, accompanied by nerves which, enclosed in a tube of infolded ectoderm, radiate from a nerve ring. The gonads are five (rarely four or two) unpaired organs in the aboral half of the test, opening through the genital plates, that is, interra- dially as in the starfish. Order I. Palgechinoidea. Paleozoic forms with five ambulacral areas, the interambulacral areas con- taining more than two rows of plates. Melonitcs. Order II. Cidaridea (Regularia).
