Connected with the ring canal is the madreporic canal, which, strangely enough, ends in a madreporic plate situated in the midst of the coelomic cavity, as shown in Plate XXX. The water of this cavity is thus used for the supply of the water-vascular system. Connected with the ring canal are the large Polian vesicles, which vary in number in different individuals from one to two, or even three. When three are present, one of them is usually quite rudimentary. They contain a reserve supply of fluid. Scattered all over the internal surface of the body are the slender ampullae connected with the tube-feet, or FIG. 21. Thyone briareus. One of the oral tentacles, showing the profusion of branches. Both the very numerous pedicels, which occur in the inter- radial areas as well as in the radii, and the large, branched ten- tacles are connected with the radial canals of the water-vascular.
