AORTIC-ARCH SYSTEM IN THE HUMAN EMBRYO. 55 which the fourth arch had been very recently completed, and also of 4 at the beginning of the post-branchial period, when the arches were about to lose their identity.

Between the two periods the average length of each showed a negligible increase of less than 5 per cent. The failure. Figs. 1 to 16. Ventral views of aortic-arch system, showing successive developmental stages. In the earliest stage only the first arch is present, while in the last (a full-term fetus) the vessels have acquired nearly their adult form. The so-called fifth arch is indicated by asterisk.
