The head, which reaches as far back as , is distinctly marked off; but neither the somatopieuric nor splanchnopleuric folds are shewn in the fisjure; the latter diverge at the level of , the former considerably nearer the front, somewhere between the lines m. b. and h. b. The optic vesicles op. v. are seen bulging out beneath the superficial epiblast. The heart lying underneath the opaque body caunot be seen. The tail-fold, t., is just indicated ; no distinct lateral folds are as yet visible in the region midway between head and tail. At m. f. the line of junction between the medullary folds is still visible, being logt forwards over the cerebral vesicles, while behind the folds diverge to enclose the narrowing sinus rhomboidalis, s.
