Those of the urochordate are permanent, while those of amphioxus do not persist as functional gills. The first pair of pouches in amphioxus become the endostyle, the second pair form the transient larval club-shaped gland, the left third gill pouch disappears early in ontogenesis. As shown in D the anterior endodermic diver- ticula (anterior cavities) resemble gill pouches in relations and in mode of origin. the intestinal diverticula of flatworms. Were these diverticula to meet the skin and become perforate, apertures similar to gill sUts would be formed. Gill slits first appear in the hemichordates. Rhabdopleura has none, but cephalodiscus has a single pair. In most hemichordates the number is considerable and increases throughout Hfe. Early in their development, their number is doubled by the growth of "tongue-bars" which extend from the dorsal side of the gill aperture to the ventral side. Later the.
