Between it and the intestine (7), the chorda dorsalis (c). the axis ofthe inner skeleton has appeared. In the larvie of ascidians this rod passes along the tail which is castoff at a later .stage. There are some very small ascidians (appeiidicularia) which retain it through swim about by its means. VERTEBRATE.
