Note 200 — Chapter XVIII

Reading edition

Willemoes Suhm (No. 530) states that the mouth is situated at the free end of the upper lip, and that the œsophagus passes through it. From an examination of some specimens of this Nauplius, for which I am indebted to Moseley, I am inclined to think that this is a mistake, and that a groove on the surface of the upper lip has been taken by Suhm for the œsophagus.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
