In the fourth, or adolescent, period there are several molts, ending with the maturing of the sex organs. In essential features the structure and development of the heart of LithoUus forficatus as described by Biegel (1922) resemble that of Scolopendra. The aorta, however, is ^^â ^^ ^'"â â â \ not differentiated, and the aortic / ,...-^.^ .'---v, \ arches are lacking. In place of them / iJ^^Alf^) \ 1 a large head blood sinus functions. Lateral transverse vessels likewise are replaced by a segmentally arranged system of blood lacunae. Above the heart is a small dorsal heart sinus. Instead of the asymmetrically ending genital duct, in Lithobius forficatus both right and left ducts are functional. DIPLOPODA, THE MILLEPEDES. Fig. 362.âPlatyrhacus amauros.

According to Pflugfelder (1932), the cleavage nuclei surrounded by a thin layer of cytoplasm and more or less connected with each other by cytoplasmic strands migrate to the periphery where they undergo further division to form a bl
