The tentacles are thus laterodorsal covered with the ends of the dorsal *, but besides sclerit*>s may be found arranged lengthwise to the tentacle. The lateroventral part of the tentacle is bare or has small transversely arranged sclerites. The tentacles have six to ten j)airs of pinnulae which are ]>roviilcd with .sclerites of a very varying size. sclerites have typically a forked end which reaches into the tentacle among the lateral sclerites, and a rather long, "gutter"-formed part which reaches into the pinnule with the open part of the "gutter" jiointing downwards (fig. .52 h). Thev mav reach a length of about mm but are usually much smaller. In each jiinnule there may be a few .sclerites; generally, however, only one of is of a larger si
