When first observed (Pig. 147, A) the body was spherical, with a short, broad intestine, and two sets of large locomotive bristles. It then passed into the cephalula state, the head clearly indicated and forming a large hood. This stage is seen at B, which represents the under side of the cephalula, the mouth being situated be- tween the two large ciliated flaps (like the velum of larval moUusks) of the hood ; the body is now segmented, with a third set of bristles and a band of cilia on the penultimate segment; afterwards as at C, dorsal view, additional rings are present; the eyes are distinguishable, and there are two more sets of bristles. The new segments are, as usual in all.
