After it is separated from the surface the otic vesicle alters its position until its ventral end lies in close re- lation to the dorsal wall of the pharynx, and, at the same time, it undergoes alteration of shape. The ventral part of the vesicle grows towards the median plane, along the ventral wall of the hind-brain. It forms the cavity and the lining epithelium of the coch- lea; but it remains in con- nexion with the dorsal part by means of a narrow tube, the canalis reuniens, and as it ^rows in length it becomes converted into a spiral tube. The portion of the dorsal section of the primitive vesicle, which lies to the lateral side of the ductus endolymphaticus, first expands and then becomes compressed and 4a. -Transverse Section through the Head of an Embryo.
