Of these two rows of cilia, one, the praeoral, forms a ring round the prse-oral lobe, while the other is larger and runs in a more longitudinal direction so as almost to join the former near the apical pole. There is also a transverse piw-anal ring of cilia (fig. 242, a, b). Internally a diverti- culum of the ar- chenteron gives rise to an independent sac forming the water-vascular sys- tem, while two from the side ; 1. from the dorsal surface.
