In the Prochordata (including for the present occasion the Enteropneusta, Tunicata, and Cephalochorda) the three principal canal systems of the body, namely, coelomic, neural, and alimentary, open in various ways to the exterior in the anterior region, where they form an intricate association of apertures which I have formally designated as the anterior trematic complex.
