From the median pouch spring two largelateral pouches which form together the pars hepatica stages just preceding the appearance of the tubule anlagen thelateral pouches are smooth and globose and project outward almostat right angles to the median hepatic pouch. At the time whenthe tubules are formed, however, the lateral pouches are flattenedtransversely and have entered upon a pronounced dorsal with the liver pouch above and in front and with theanterior wall of the yolk stalk behind is a small thick walledsac, the anlage of the gall bladder. The hepatic tubules take. Fig. 1 Lateral view of a semi-diagrammatic reconstruction of the foregutand liver of an Acanthias embryo 9 mm. long.

These areas are indicated in stipple in figure tubule anlagen arise in two forms: as slight longitudinalridges upon the lower part of the outer surface of the lateralpouches and as very small irregularities of the dorsal marginsof the same structures. When first observed the longitudinalridges are two to four in number on either side. They extendalmost the entire length of the lateral pouches and are distinctlyseparated by shallow lateral furrows. Sometimes these ridgesmay be subdivided longitudinally at their ends.
