According to Weismann, they approach each other and form a median outgrowth in the anterior wall of the stomodaeum. On. Fk;. 43.—The anterior extremity of the Hlow-fly eml)ryo in five successive stages, showing the transformation of the mouth organs : /, a side view of the head of the embryo before the segmentation of the coelomic plates, after Weismann ; 2, a later stage of the same ; $ and 4, still later stages ; j, a ventral view of the head in the same stage ; (5, a ventral view of the head in the mature embryo ready to escape from the egg. the same authority the median tooth of the larval mouth armature represents their remains, and is therefore composed of the united mandibles. I am by no means sure that such is its origin, and, as already stated, regard it as the labrum. The second pair of appendages, the maxillae, become parallel with each other, and form the maxillae of the larva. The third pair Descrii'tion of XV.
