Branchim arborescent or fasciculated, not contained in a special cavity, but more or less completely exposed on the back and sides, towards the rear iopisfhen) of the body. Sexes ;— (See Woodward's ' Manual.') The Opisthobranchiata, or " Sea-slugs," may be divided into two sections, the Tectibranchiata and Nudibranchiata, accord- ing as the branchiae are protected or are uncovered. The first section, that of the Tectibranchiata, is distinguished by the fact that the animal is usually provided with a shell, both in the larval and adult state, and that the branchiae are protected by the shell or by the mantle. Under this family are included the families of the Tomatellidce, Bullidce (Bubble shells), Aplysiadce (Sea-hares), Pleurobranchidce and PhyllidiadcR. In the second section, that of the Nudibranchiata (fig. in), the animal is destitute of a shell, except in the embryo condi- tion, and the branchiae are always placed on the back or sides of the body. This section comprises the families DoridcE (Sea-lemons), iyitotiiadiB, /Eolidce, Phylilrhoidce, and.
