Kurther experiments have been carried on by the senior author during re-cent years and a short account of the results has been presented (Dalcq, 1935). This has led to a furtluT eytological study of the structure of the ripe egg, and to tin- discovery of a preexisting bilateral symmetry indicated by the arrange- ment of eosinophil subcorlical granules (the mate-rial of the future yel- low crescent) in the lonn ot a large crescent which is more developed on one side of the primary axis. This important feature of the organ- ization of the ripe Ascidiclla egg together with the variations in the structure of merogonic twin embryos, whose anatomy has been thor-.
