The larval stomach, which, as we have seen, forms the adult pyloric sac, begins to give off blunt outgrowths into the cavities of the nascent arms: these are the rudiments of the pyloric caeca (Fig. 369).

The adult stomach, begun as we have noted as an out- growth on the left side of the larval stomach, increases in size and comes in contact with the ectoderm at a spot between the dorsal and ventral horns of the left posterior coelom. These horns meet above it, and so the left posterior coelom is converted into a ring. Within this ring lies the ring formed by the hydrocoele, and beneath this the ring formed by the peri-oral coelom. The holes in the septum dividing the anterior coelom from the left posterior coelom become healed up, and with the progressive constriction of the neck of the.
