Original. Anisoptera, actually the subnodus itself. In fig. 19 a-e, I have attempted to shew sufficient successive stages in the evolution of the nodus to make the phylogeny clear. There only remains for discussion the case of the apparent prolongation of Sc through the nodus. Fig. 19 F shews the actual.
