In the Actinopterygii we have hitherto A MI OWE I dealt with, the vertebral centia, formed in the skeletogenous layerin connection with the bases of the neural and haemal arches,are derived almost equally from the dorsal and the ventralelements ; with the help of bony tissue these are bound togetherinto a single ring-like or biconcave centrum. Now in Ainia well-developed bony centra occur along the trunk region, each bearing.
