DIPNOi. The development of the dipnoan heart has formed the subject of a careful and exhaustive study by Robertson (1913) and her account of the development of the heart in Lepidosiren forms the basis of the following Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original MacBride, E.
