The Mynapoda and lnsecta agree m the mode of arrangement of the chief tracts of their digestive system ; which at the same time closely resembles what obtains in Peripatus. Of the three divisions of the digestive tube the fore-gut only prepares the food, and the mid-gut has the principal share in digesting it. As a rule it forms the longest.
