FANKBONER pouch and extends anteriorly along the floor of the stomach running parallel to the main typholosole and following it into the caecum. With the exception of the minor typholsole, all of these folds convey particles and mucus-bound materials anteriorly into the caecum for sorting. LF. FIGURE 9.

With the exception of the minor typholsole, all of these folds convey particles and mucus-bound materials anteriorly into the caecum for sorting. LF. FIGURE 9. The sorting area of the caecum of A. falcata, its structure and ciliary currents. Abbreviations used are: CP, caecal pocket; DD, duct of the digestive diverticula; DT, duct typhlosole; HG, hood groove; I, intestinal groove; L, left duct tract; LF, left fold of duct tract; R, right duct tract; RF, right fold of duct tract; TT, tongue of major typhlosole. The intestinal groove has its source at the point where the main typhlosole sub-divides to form the left fold of the stomach (Fig. 7), and its functions in passing materials, which have been rejected by the sorting mechanisms of the stomach, posteriorly to the mid-gut as waste material. Forming a tributary to the intestinal groove is a crease in the right wall of the stomach, the minor intestinal groove. This groove has two functions. Its anterior half conveys particles and mucus-bound matter to ciliary currents leading.
