SURVEY OF STRUCTURE 49 In the 50-mm. fish a transverse diaphragm was found in the posterior half of the swimbladder. There is an aperture in the central part of the diaphragm, through which the anterior chamber con- taining the retia and gas-gland, communicates with the posterior chamber. It is clear that the structure of the swimbladder of Chiasmodon is essentially similar to that found in other physoclist teleosts, in which a diaphragm separates an anterior gas-producing chamber from a posteri
