After preservation the color is completely lost, and the body becomes nearly cylindrical throughout. Body walls.—In internal organization this species agrees closely with the descriptions which Burger gives of C. armandp and of C. fatago7iica^ but presents a number of peculiarities, which may be stated briefly as follows : Outer integument divided into a superficial and a deeper layer of epithelial cells, separated by a network of con- nective tissue fibei's. Basement layer in esophagal region about equal in thickness to the integument itself, but is much thinner farther back- Beneath basement layer in esophagal region is a loose sheet of circular muscles, and beneath this a double set of diagonal muscular fibers.
