A study in the comparative anatomy and morphology of insects; with plates and illustrations executed directly from the drawings of the author; CUbiodiversity4765349-9885 Year: 1890 ( 36 THE LARVA OF THE BLOW-FLY. by means of fibres of a tendinous character, which run through the whole thickness of the endostracum (Fig. i, /). The Endostracum consists of many laminae, and is more or less distinctly divided into hexagonal columns, several corresponding to each of the cells of the hypoderm. It is perforated by numerous canals, which contain processes from these cells (Fig. I, / and 2) and nerve end-organs, which terminate in the sensory papillae (Fig. i, J, f), immediately beneath the epiostracum. Fig. I (bis).—Sections of the skin of the Blow fly larva.—i, a vertical section, show- ing the manner in which the muscles are inserted into the epiostracum ; 2, a similar section, showing the prisms of the endostracum ; 3, a sensory papilla ; 4, a suh- hypodermic cell, with a terminal trachea in its interior, cti.

Sensory Papillae.—The surface of the integument, especially near the spiracles and on the anterior edges of the rings, is raised into papillae, which consist of both epi- and endostracum. These papillae contain bundles of fusiform cells, which ter- minate in very fine rod-like organs in the epiostracum at the tip of the papilla, these are the terminal organs of cutaneous nerves (Fig. z., 3,1).
