The Branchial Arteries.—Either Ayers' (1889) figures (reproduced as my Text' figures 105 and 106) are inaccurate, or his specimen of Chlamydoselachus was anomalous. Text-figure 110.

After AUis, 1911, Fig. 1. in this respect: only one efferent-collector artery is shown in each gill-arch, whereas in all other specimens of Chlamydoselachus that have been examined, my own specimens included, there are two such arteries. To be sure, Goodrich (1909, p. 137) wrote: "Ex- cept in Chlamydoselachus, the branchial arches of the Selachii, like those of the Dipnoi, have two efferent arteries;" but it is probable that Goodrich merely accepted Ayers' account without verifying it. In his later (1930) text, Goodrich figures Chlamydoselachus with two efferent
