Protruding cnidocils distributed fairly uniformly in the epidermis of a fully developed planula. The cavity within the planula appears as a lighter area centered nearer the anterior end (left). The entoderm is correspondingly thicker toward the posterior end; scale bar — 50 /A. FIGURE 2. Optical section of a planula showing a concentration of nematocyst capsules in the posterior entoderm (bottom third). (Fig. 2-5 are all to the same scale and the nematocyst capsules depicted in
