The interior of the shell showing the semicircular lamella (Lam.) and the lingula (Li.) Reference may be made to some remarks on the anatomy of Latia by Hutton (1881). Probably because of poorly preserved material he stated that the tentacles were transversely ringed and that the eyes were lateral to the bases of the tentacles. This is obviously not the case either in fresh or fixed specimens ( Fig. 1 ). I lutton also gave the radular formula as 27+1+27 but this is certainly wrong, since the number of laterals is approximately 110. Latia, like the rest of its sub-order, is a vegetarian. The gut is usually filled with diatoms and what appear to be the remains of algae. Similar diatoms are found on the surface of the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ); Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ).
