It begins as a simple opisthodetic ligament (A), the inner ligament layer inclined posteriorly from the umbones as in Malleus. But instead of this increasing steadily in size by added secretion from the mantle isthmus as in that genus (see Fig. 2A), new areas of inner ligament, or resilifers, appear at intervals posteriorly. Two of these are shown in Figure 11B; the maximum number observed in /. isognomon was 18. Whil

While obviously the number is related to the length of the hinge line, it is not necessarily related to the length of the M! OCL ICL.
