(After Faxon.) cephalic appendages. 7i, heart; t, intestine; I-VII, second antennas and mandibles, are schizopodal. Internally there is a three-chambered alimentary tract, a suprauesoj^hageal ganglion on which is an unpaired eye, and a ventral chain. The naujjlius is almost universal among the lower Crustacea, and some writers believe that it represents an ancestral form from which the Crus- tacea have descended, a view open to much objection. The zoea is more complex. It consists (fig. 415) of cephalo- thorax and abdomen, the latter without appendages, the former.
