A very regular sixteen-celled stage; accessory cleavage well shown; though not well focused on the lower margin. B. Approximate thirtv-two celled stage. There is no accessory cleavage in this case. The formation of the central from the margmal cells may be readily observed in this figure. C. Later stage of cleavage. , D. Cleavaiie at The marjrinal cells are now becommg separated peripherally from the periblast which has received its nuclei from them. which the sperm-nuclei are embedded. There can be little doubt that the former alternative is correct. While in the stages of the accessory cleavage, sperm-nuclei are readily found both m.
