VII: 2. The collection of bristles that is in most cases to be found on the posterior edge of thepart that has been explained as a protopodite is thus, in my opinion, to be considered as therudiment of a homologon to the vibratory plate on the preceding limb. This assumption seemsto be supported both by the position of these bristles and by the fact that they are sometimes. Iic MI. — Sixth limb nt (y/jridiiin medilerrnnea O. Costa (From G. W.

It seems, at least at present, to beimpossible to prove this assumption. For the cause of a possible reduction of this vibratoryplate see G. W. Mt)LLER, 1894, p. 198. There is no part that might be explained as an endopodite according to the firstiiietiiod of explanation* (as in the fifth Umb). We must note the uncertainty that, in my opinion, exists in both the methods of explanationdescribed above, with regard to the boundary between the protopodite and the branch situated(listally of this. Perhaps only the proximal joint, the one that in most cases is characterized by ha-ving two bristle-bearing endites on the anterior edge, is to be co
