Scale bar = 25 (D) FMRFamide-like immunoreactivity observed in the same embryo as 2B showing F-rl, -r2, -1\ and -12, and plexus under the apical tuft. Scale bar = 25 /am. C and D demonstrate the similar pattern of immunoreactivity for EFLRlamide and FMRFamide. apical commissure toward the foot. Also by day 8, formal- dehyde glutaraldehyde-induced fluorescence, indicative of catecholamine-containing cells, was observed in the foot region. The catecholamine-containing foot cells were vase- shaped and appeared in two bilaterally symmetric groups of two to three cells on each side (see day 9, Figs. 4B, 6A, B). By day 9 additional FMRFamide-LIR cells were ob- served in positions consistent with the locations previously identified as the developing cerebral, pedal, and pleural ganglia of the future adult CNS in A. califoniicii (Krieg- stein, 1977; Marois and Carew, 1990; Marois and Carew, 1997b) and other opisthobranchs (Kempf et 1997a). One of these FMRFamide central cells (FC-1) appeared near F-rl, another (FC-2) was located near F-r2, and a third (FC-3) was observed to the left of the apical commissure (Figs. ID, 3C). Also by day 9, the number of catechol- amine-containing cells increased to four to five cells on each side of the foot (Figs. 4B,
