Beside these, between the meso and meta- thorax, lies a stiff extension—really a plate bone— called the meso-phragma, to give solid attachment to part of the muscles of the organs of Fig. 13.—Longitudinal Section Through Head, just Outside Right Antenna (Magnified Fourteen times). a, Antenna, with Three Muscles attached to rncp, Meso-cephalic Pillar; cl, Clypeus ; Ibr, Labrum, or Upper Lip; No. 1, Chyle Gland (System No. 1 of Siebold); this Gland really runs in front of the Meso-cephalic Pillars, but here the latter are kept in view ; o, Opening of same; oc, Ocellus, or Simple Eye; en, Cephalic Ganglion ; n, Neck ; th, Thorax ; os, OSsophagus ; sd 2, 3, Common Salivary Ducts of Systems No. 2 and No. 3; sd 2 and sd 3, Salivary Ducts of Systems No. 2 and No. 3 respectively; sv, Salivary Valve ; c, Cardo ; ph.
