According to their descriptions,the anlage begins as a small evaginat ion which gradually elon-gates ;ui(l grows more and more narrow. It has produced aproximal portion, a stalk and an end-vesicle which lie justbeneath the inner surface of the skull in the frontal region. THE PINEAL BODY 51 Still later many small diverticula develop in the walls of theend-vesicle which become unusually large. A feature of thedescription of the development given by these authors is theabsence of any anterior or parapineal element in the epiphysealcomplex, for this organ, according to their observations, does.
