The bi-lobed upper lip is present, also the antenna?, (A) the jaws, and the first rudiments of the legs; rudimentary appendages are present on the seventh segment as prominences. On the abdominal segments there are round invaginations, the first rudiments of trachese ; there is a longitudinal groove from mouth to anus. //, The ventral plate covers the whole ventral surface of the ovum ; the openings of the invagiuations (stigmata) have become small; rudimentary extremities are still present on the first abdominal segment. The ganglia of the ventral chain have appeared. !, Viewed from the dorsal surface the so-called dorsal plate has closed up to a tube; Oe is its opening. fr, The embryo just before- hatching seen from the ventral side. Hydrophilus these folds grow together over the ventral plate from behind forwards, and fuse with one another, so as to give rise to an.
