Much the same condition obtains in Squalus sucklii (see p. 183, fig. 172a), but in this form the median nucleus is not pro- jected forward into so sharp a mass. In a type like Heterodontus it stands out in a particularly striking way. In many otlier forms, on the contrary, the median olfactory nucleus is poorly developed. The pallial eminences also are very differently developed in different Elas- mobranclis. In Scynuiu.^ again they are sharply defined as prominent dorsal mounds l)uilt up of masses of cells (, fig. 213a). In other forms these lobes are less well developed (Acanthias); while in still others they are scarcely discernible. The diencephalon (di.) in general maj^ be said to be narrow from side to side and show no marked swellings. In some forms it is well seen from above, as in Heterodontus (fig. 210) and Raja (fig. 211b) . In all such occurrences the brain stem is well drawn out in this region. In those Elasmobranchs in which a.
