XI ELECTRICAL FISHES 371 (Fig. 239), increasing posteriorly, so that it soon occupies the upper half of the total diameter of the organ, and finally pushes its way completely behind the large organ. A section parallel with the long axis of the fish shows a general fusion of the longitudinal septa between the wide-spaced columns, which end before and behind in sharp wedges (Fig. 240, b); the cross- section is spindle-shaped, or rhomboidal. If a longitudinal section of the electrical organ (parallel with the axis of the organ, and vertical to the long partition walls) is examined under a high power, it is easy to see the cross-sections of the. transverse septa of connective tissue, extended between each pair of longitudinal partition walls, together with the com- partments which they enclose, each containing a transversely.
