The urinogenital organs are discussed elsewhere (p. 365); butit may here be mentioned that the cloaca is lost, the anus oj^eningseparately in front, and the genital and urinary ducts lead into a A CTINOP TER YGII 307 einus opening behind. In the Teleostei, however, the sinus maydisappear, all the openings coming to the suiface (Fig. 354). The Actinopterygii tirst appear in early Devonian strata, andhave since become the dominant group of fish.
