The of Y. limatula are 0,15 mm in diameter and those of N. proxima are 0,09 mm in diameter) and development is quite rapid. In all three forms, the cleavages are typical. Gastrulation of Yoldia, and probably of the other forms, is formed by epibole. At a rather early period the surface cells, or at least part of them, acquire cilia, and the em- bryos begin to roll around. In the case of N. delphinodonta, where the embryos are carried in a case, the embryos remain evenly ciliated, and are never able to swim freely. The embryos of both of the other species finally rise to the sur- face of the water and become quite 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 Anatomische Gesellschaft.
