. Biological lectures delivered at the Marine Biological Laboratory of Wood's Holl [sic]. Biology. 114 BIOLOGICAL Fig. I. — Left side of fertilized unsegmented egg of Amphitrite. Polar globules indicate the position of the animal pole. is the transverse ciliated fringe, the prototrocJi (Figs. 13-16), and it is the purpose of this paper to bring together and compare the observations of several workers who have employed the method of cell- lineage to determine the exact origin of this organ. In order to establish a con- crete example for comparison, let us proceed at once to the account of the origin of a simple and fairly typical pro- totroch, namely, that of the marine annelid AmpJiitrite. The spherical &^'g is of medium size, about one-tenth of a millimeter in diameter, without much yolk, and is unprotected save by a thin wrinkled Q%% membrane. Fig. I represents the &g^ seen from the left side. Fertilization has taken place, and the polar globules remain attached. The succeeding figures represent the q^^ in the same position, unless otherwise stated. Fertiliza- tion takes place in the sea water, and the cleavage pro- gresses so rapidly that the larva swims in a few hours. The first cleavage being un- equal, the 2-cell stage is char- acterized by the possession of a larger and a smaller blastomere, which are represented in side view in Fig. 2. After this the cells divide with some irrregularity in time and in the.
