a = flagellum in Fig. 27, that is supposed to extend centrad beyond the nucleus.

b = twin flagella in Fig. 27, of which the centrad continuation is seen applied against the distal surface of the cells and to be continued centrad.

c = capsule of lens.

cf = axial fibers of cells extending centrad.

co = cornea.

concr = concretion cavity.

ec = ectoderm.

en = endoderm.

f = flagella.

flp = distal fiber of a long pigment cell.

fpr = axial nerve fiber of a prism cell.

fpyr = axial nerve fiber of a pyramid cell.

frc = axial nerve fiber of the retinal cells of the simple eyes.

gc = ganglion cells.

ind = impression of the lens probably due to the pressure of weight against the surrounding tissue.

l = lens.

lp = long pigment cells.

m = muscle fibers.

namp = nuclei of ampulla cells.

nc = network cells (Figs. 13 and 16), and nettle cells (Figs. 28, 29).

nf = nerve fibers and tissue.

nlp = nucleus of long pigment cell.

nm = nucleus of muscle cells.

nprc = nucleus of prism cell.

npyrc = nucleus of pyramid cell.

nz = nuclear zone.

pr = prism of prism cell.

prc = prism cell.

pyr = pyramid of pyramid cell.

pyrc = pyramid cell.

pz = pigmented zone.

r = retina.

s = secretion in endo. of tent. and ampulla.

sh = shrinkage space.

sec = vitreous secretion in the lumen of the simple eyes.

sla = supporting lamella.

vb = vitreous body or zone.

x = (1) the approximate level at which Fig. 4 should be cut transversely to give Figs. 1 and 3. (2) the thickening of the supporting lamella in Fig. 13 to support the lens.

* = Point of approximation of cells of lenses in Figs. 7 and 13.
