Shortly behind the point where the neurenteric passage communicates with the neural tube the latter structure opens dorsally, and a groove on the surface of the primitive streak is continued backwards from it for a short distance (0). The first part of this passage to appear is the hypoblastic diverticulum above mentioned.
