REGENERATION OF GASTROPOD PROBOSCIS 319 odontophoral cartilages, and other structures of the proboscis were verified by exam- ination of the amputated proboscis with a dissecting microscope. For the details of normal morphology of the adult proboscis, see Carriker (1943). Xo mortality re- sulted from the proboscisectomies, and all snails recovered rapidly. The 1958 experiment was designed to determine (a) the number of days after proboscisectomy when boring would resume, and (b) the rate of anatomical regen- eration of the proboscis after proboscisectomy. A total of 64 snails was successfully proboscisectomized, 32 snails for (a) and 32 for (b) (see below). Each of (a) and (b) included 16 cinerea (8 males and 8 females, 4 medium and 4 large individuals of each sex) and 16 Euplenra candata etterae (8 males and 8 females, 4 medium and 4 large individuals of each sex). The cinerea ranged in shell height from to mm, and the Enplcura candata etterae from to mm. D-e.
