This constrictionbecoming deeper and deeper forms a pedicle, {j),) whichsoon divides into three lobes. The disk also assumes a pen-tagonal form, with five double series of vesicle?. The firstrudiments of the rays are seen to form in the interior of thepentagon. At the same time, the peduncle contracts stillmore, being at last entirely absorbed into the cavity of th©body, and the animal soon acquires its final form, (m.) METAMOlirilOSES OF ANIMALS. 179.
