According to Eollett, the direct transition to this most characteristic structure in the muscles of the Dytiscidre is found in numerous little Carabidse, Brachinus, and the common wasp, where the muscle-fibres are more or less elongated in cross-section, and present radially situated Cohnheim's area? in their longer diameter. Eetzius (19) was the first to describe the very delicate trans- verse figures exhibited by the muscle-fibres of Dytiscus man/, in.
