Fig. 6 A midsagittal projection reconstruction of the 22-somite embryo

H1093, showing most of the head. ‘ ?’ indicates the probable remains of the oral membrane.

In the 22-somite embryo, as in Davis’ 20-somite specimen, the closure of the anterior neuropore is completed, but its site on the external surface can still be recognized. The head ectoderm at that region is attached to the underlying brain wall in a small area probably representing the last point where the tissues separate (fig. 6).
