Preface

The preparation of the normal tables and plates on Nedurus was begun several years ago by Professor C. O. Whitman but on account of unavoidable circumstances the work was delayed. It was later taken up by Professor Eycleshymer upon the suggestion of both Professor Whitman and Professor Keibel. While Professor Whitman has not directly participated in the later work, he has furnished the senior author with material and Information without which it would have been impossible to complete the work. In the completion of the work the senior author has been fortunate in having the able Cooperation of Professor James M. Wilson.

Description of lllustrations

The series of eggs, embryos and larvae of Necturus, from which the following descriptions and the appended illustrations were made, were collected May I5th, 1903 and kept at a water temperature of 17o — 18o C. The illustrations are copied from the original water colored pictures which were made by Mr. Leonard H. Wilder, under the direction of the senior author. It should be emphasized that the ages, measurements and illustrations are all made from the living objects.

Fig. 28. (X 50

Side view of embryo 30 days 8 hrs. old, length 13 mm, 30 — 31 myotomes. The trunk of the embryo is nearly straight. At level of the posterior gill there is a pronounced neck bend and at the level of the posterior limbs a striking downward bend of the tail. The epiphysis shows in surface views. The lens is discernible. The ear is still vi.sible. The external nasal openings are sharply defined. The boundaries of the mouth are better outlined owing to the approximation of the ventral ends of the mandibular arches. The hyoid arch is becoming obscured. The gill bars are prominent on the three branchial arches. The anterior limb buds project dorsally about .5 mm above the surface of the bod3\ The posterior limb buds are but slight elevations. The yolk is pear-shaped with its dorsal surface much flattened. The auricular and ventricular portions of the heart are apparent. The surface of the yolk is covered by a dense network of capillaries which for the most part convey blood antero-ventrally to the abdominal vein. Considerable pigment is present in the trunk region although but little has reached the outer portion of the dermis.

Fig. 29. (X 5)

Side view of embryo 36 days 16 hrs. old, length 16 mm, 36-38 myotomes. In general outline the embryo shows a numljcr of striking changes. The neck bend is not so pronounced. The tail bend is scarcely noticeable. There is a striking increase in dorso-ventral width of tail. The cerebral hemispheres are well defined. The eye is now prominent and the lens better defined. The ear is no longer visible in surface views. The mouth is well defined. The ends of the mandibular arches are closely approximated but not united. The hyoid and branchial arches are more obscure. Anlagen of gill fiiaments present on gill bars. Anterior limbs project dorsally. Posterior limbs are short ridges extending in horizontal plane. The yolk is elongated and reduced in diameter both dorso-ventrally and laterally. Surface blood vessels as in preceding stage, excepting that they are now apparent in the gill bars. The chromatophores are most numerous in the anterior and dorsal portions of the head.


Fig. 30. (X 5-)

Side view of einhryo 40 days 20 hrs. old, length 18 mm, 44—46 myotomes. The outline of the body shows a marked ventral curvature of the trunk, less pronounced neck bend, and further increase in the dorso-ventral width of the tail. The eye is very prominent owing to the pigment in the retina. Ear not visible externally. Nasal openings very small. The mandibular arches have coalesced. The boundaries of the other arches are no longer discernible. Gill filaments well developed. Anterior limbs about i mm long project dorso-posteriorly. The yolk is elongated oval. Abdominal vein and branchial blood vessels prominent. Pigment present in dorsal portion of head, also along dorsal and lateral portions of trunk and tail. The yolk is unpigmented excepting along dorsal margin.

Fig- 31. (X 5.)

Side view of larva 49 days old, lergth 21 mm. General outline of body decidedly different. Head bend obliterated, slight upward curve in trunk. Tail broader. Eye more deeply pigmented. Gill bars very long, extending to level of end of anterior limb. From three to five lateral filaments on each gill bar. Anterior limbs project postero-ventrally ; three digits formed. Posterior limbs directed caudad ; no trace of digits. Yolk much elongated. Network of capillaries denser. Large lateral arteries, at level of upper margin of yolk, very prominent. Well defined longitudinal bands of pigment.

Fig: 32. (X 5.)

Side view of larva 61 days old, length 25 mm. General outline of body shows less dorsal curvature of trunk. Tail much longer in proportion to length of trunk and much broader dorso-ventrally. Gill bars longer, each posessing six to eight lateral filaments. Anterior and posterior limbs directed postero-ventrally. Anterior 3 mm long, posterior 2 mm long. Each limb shows four digits. The distribution of pigment is essentially similar to that observed in the 21 mm larva, the bands however are more sharply defined. Chromatophores in the gill bars and limbs and beginning to extend over the dorsal surface of the yolk.

Fig. 33. (X 5.)

Side view of larva 70 days 4 hrs. old, length 28 mm. The general outline of the body is slenderer than at any time preceding. The rapid absorption of the yolk has brought its ventral surface nearly to the level of the ventral surfaces of the head and tail. The gill bars curve dorsally and possess fi;om ten to twelve pairs of lateral filaments. The tail is somewhat constricted at the level of the posterior limbs. The limbs and digits are better developed and are now used in locomotion. Pigmentation is denser than in 25 mm larva, but same general arrangement of bands prevails.

Fig. 34. (X 50

Side view of larva 97 days old, length 34 mm. In general outline the larva begins to resemble the adult. The yolk is well absorbed. The tail is very broad and now used as a powerful caudal fin in swimming. The gill bars project dorsally and have a large number of filaments. The legs project far below the ventral surface of the body. In color the same general pattern prevails as in the 28 mm larva. There are some minor changes, the Hght band is broader and better defined, and extensions of pigment over the yolk have been so uneven that a number of irregulär oval areas are left unpigmented, causing a mottled appearance in this region.

Fig. 35. (X 5-)

Side view of larva 126 days old, length 39 mm. The young Nedurus now conforms in outline to the adult. In color hovvever it is decidedly diiferent.

Introduction to Tables

The material upon which the normal tables are based was collected in 1903. At the time the illustrations were made from the living material, several specimens of the same stages were fixed in various Solutions. Among these 10 7o formalin caused the least distortion. This formalin -fixed material proved most satisfactory for work not involving cytological study. The material was stained in toto with haematoxylin, imbedded in paraffin and counterstained on the slide with weak picric acid, orange G or eosin. Unless otherwise stated the above fixation and staining have been used. Each of the stages designated in the following tables was sectioned in transverse, horizontal and sagittal planes. Besides these series many others have been consulted in which the material was fixed and stained by other methods. The total number of series at our disposal was upwards of 250.

Some Variations in External Structures.

Before the individual variations are considered in detail it should be stated that a given nest contains but few eggs that are in precisely the same stage of development. The difFerences are inost obvious in the early stages up to the closure of the neural fold. PVom the closure of the neural folds to the 39 mm larva the variations are not so pronounced, yet there are innumerable minor variations.

In the following descriptions the principal variations observed in the external features are first recorded, then those observed in the sections.

Cleavage.

In the cleavage stages, from the second on to late cleavage, there is so much Variation in the Position, extent and rate of progress of the various grooves that it is impossible to record them. Some of the variations have been described elsewhere (1904 b) by the senior author.

Gastrulation.

Some Variation is found in the position of the first line of invagination which forms the dorsal lip of the blastopore. Its first appearance may be along a line equidistant from the equator and the vegetative pole or it may form nearer the equator and again sometimes nearer the vegetative pole. The first line of invagination may be nearly straight and again it may be decidedly crescentic. The maximal diameter of the yolk plug may equal one half the diameter of the egg. The closure of the blastopore usually occurs in about six days but it may close in five days.

Closure of neural folds.

Variations in the closure of the neural fold are frequently observed. The coalescence of the lateral portions of the fold usually begins at the posterior end. Sometimes they first coalesce along the middle portion of the embryo. Usually the transverse portion of the fold is continuous ; at other times it shows a deep transverse groove which separates it into right and left halves. Cf. Figs. 18, 19, 20, 21. Wide variations exist in depth, width and extent of the neural groove.

Appearance of optic vesicles.

The optic vesicles are usually present before the complete closure of the neural fold. Sometimes they are present as disc-like depressions in the neural plate before the lateral portions of the fold have begun to coalesce; again, but rarely, they are not visible until the folds have closed.

Neuromeres (?).

There are frequently observed in the cephalic region well marked serial elevations and depressions along the inner margins of the lateral folds and across the neural plate. In other embryos there is not the slightest trace of either.


Somites.

In some embryos three myotomes are differentiated before the neural folds are closed, while in others there are no traces of myotomes until the folds are closed. The number of myotomes early becomes exceedingly variable in the tail. It is here impossible to count them accurately either in surface views or in sections. In the trunk i. e. betvveen the limbs from the 15 — 16 mm larva up to the 39 mm they seem to be fairly constant numbering 18—20. In the tail however they are variable, so that in larvae of identical lengths there may be a Variation of 1—5 myotomes. It should be emphasized that the number in the tail is determined with great difficulty since the most caudal are but slight thickenings in the mesoderm.

Lateral curvature of body.

In the embryos of 8 — 15 mm there is much Variation in the lateral curvature of the body. In some rests as high as 80 7o of the embryos have the head and tail curved to the right. Other nests show a like percentage in which the head and tail are curved to the left. Out of 328 eggs, taken from five nests, 174 had the concave side on the right and 154 on the left.

External gills.

In most embryos of 9 mm (Fig. 25) the fourth and fifth arches are a common mass with no indications of the line of division; in some the line of invagination is distinct. In the later stages (e. g. 25 mm) there are usually five or six filaments on the middle gill bar, in others there are eight or nine. This variation is even more pronounced in the 26 — 39 mm larvae.

Limbs.

Some variations have been noted in the time of appearance of both the anterior and the posterior limb buds. The anläge of the anterior limb is usually discernible in the 11 mm stage (Fig. 27), but sometimes not until the larva measures 12 mm. The posterior limb buds are usually beginning in the 12 mm stage, sometimes are not present until the larva measures 13 mm. In the formation of the digits variations are found. Three are usually present on the anterior limbs in the 20—21 mm larva. In some three are not present until the larva is 23 mm long. The same Variation is observed in the time of formation of the fourth digit on the anterior limb. Similar variations are found in the time of formation of the posterior digits.

Pigmentation.

Although little Variation is observed in the position of the bands there is much Variation in the degree of pigmentation. These differences are most pronounced in the larvae between 19—25 mm. In some the chromatophores are densely aggregated while in others they are sparsely scattered. In some (25 mm) they have extended over the dorsal portion of the yolk only, while in others they have extended over one half of the lateral surface of the yolk.


Variations in Internal Structures.

In the study of the variations of internal structures only tliose which are most obvious have been recorded.

Notochord.

There is considerable Variation in the anterior extent of the notochord in nearly all stages. This Variation is more obvious in the earlier than in the later stages. Usually a considerable tract of mesenchyma lies between the anterior end of the chorda and the hypophysis. Frequently this tract is short and sometimes only a narrow band.

Eye.

In sections the optic vesicles show the same variations which have been recorded under variations in external features. The appearance of pigment in the retina and iris shows considerable Variation. In the 17 mm embryo series 140, 141, 145 show considerable pigment in the retina and its first appearance in the iris, while 146 shows the beginning of pigment in the retina and none in the iris. The time of first appearance of pigment in the choroid is likewise variable. In the 18 mm embryo series 152, 155 show considerable pigment, series 146, 151 show but little pigment, while in series 147, 149, 150 there is no pigment in the choroid.

Ear.

In the 6 mm embryo, series loo, there is a cup-shaped invagination of the inner layer of the ectoderm while in series loi there is a vesicle. In the 7 mm embryo, series 102, shows the otic vesicle just closed, while in .series 103 it is not quite closed. In the 18 mm larva, series 146 and 147, the endolymphatic duct extends over the medulla to about one half the distance to median line; in series 151 it extends over the lateral margin of the medulla; in series 149 it does not extend over the lateral margin of the medulla.

Nose.

In the 9 mm stage series 106 shows the anläge of the nose as a shallow invagination of the ectoderm. In series 107 there i.s no invagination. In 108 it is slightly cup-shaped. In series 109 thickened ectoderm, in series iio thickened ectoderm.

Bpiphysis.

In the 9 mm stage series 106, 109, 108 show the epiphysis to be a slight cup-shaped evagination in the dorsal wall of the fore-brain. In series 107, iio the evagination is deeper and somewhat pear-shaped.

Paraphysis.

In the II mm embryos, series Il6, the paraphysis is a very shallow evagination in the postero-dorsal wall of the telencephalon. In 117 the paraphysis is a deep pit-like evagination.


Hypophysis.

In the 9 mm embryo, series lo6, 107, the anla<i^e of the hypophysis is two layers of cells thick, in 108 it is but a single layer, while in 109 it is three or four layers thick.

Liver.

In the 9 mm embryo, series 106, 107, 108, 110 the anläge of the liver is shown as a wide evagination of the gut; while 109 shows two or three tubules.

Pancreas.

The dorsal pancreas seems to grow very slowly and to show much Variation. Series 118 and 119 show the dorsal pancreas as a slight evagination of the dorsal wall of the gut. In series 120 it is in about the same stage. In series 125 the evagination is vesicular. In the 13 mm embryo series I2I, there is a cup-shaped evagination. In 122, 124 the evagination is vesicular. In the 14 mm stage it varies from cup-shaped evagination in series 127, 130 to vesicular in 129.

Spleen.

In the 15 mm embryo, series 131, 134 show the anläge of the spieen as a small mass of mesenchymal cells in the dorsal mesentery of stomach. In series 132 there is no indication of spleen. In 133 there is a well defined mass of mesenchymal cells.

Thymus.

In the 16 mm embryo, series 137, 138, 139 the thymus begins as a small mass of cells in close proximity to the 3rd branchial cleft. In 136 the thymus anläge is not yet present.

Trachea — Lungs.

In the 10 mm embryo series lll, II2 show the beginning of the trachea as a short groove in the ventral wall of the pharynx. Series I13 shows a deeper vesicular evagination.
