The neck-bend is approximately a right angle; thecephalic flexure is also very nearly a right angled bend, so thatthe oral aperture is in close proximity to the cardiac region. Thedorsal flexure has disappeared almost entirely, only a slightelevation persisting to mark its earlier position. Above this THE AMERICAN JOURNAL OF ANATOMY, VOL. 17, NO. 1 34 F. W. THYNG.
