Fig. 12. I .. Nucleated cartilage cells from tlie Chorda dorsalis of a Lamprey. Of this we have ai very beautiful and striking proof afforded in the above engraving. The Chorda dorsalis is an extremely thin and delicate tube, composed of cells in close opposition with each other, and enclosing the spinal chord. It is, in fact, the vertebral oolumn arrested in the first stage of its development. This is its permanent con- dition in the lamprey, and also in the lowest group of car- tilaginous Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Coultas, Harland, d. 1877.
