This character alone will serve to distinguish this species from the following. Of the internal anatomy, it is necessary to mention only the large, spiral intestine, which extends the whole length of the body, the single • These anchors and plates make most beautiful microscopic objects. They can be prepared by soaking a piece of the body wall in a solution of caustic potash until it is thoroughly softened, when it can be washed in water, and the deposits mounted as 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 State Geological and Natural History Survey of Connecticut.
