The relations of these sequences of beats have been exten- sively studied by Schultze (1901) in Salpa, and more re- cently by Hecht (1918) in Ascidia. It is commonly believed that in these pulsation series the advisceral equal the abvisceral beats, but a closer ex- amination of the facts shows that in general the ad-
