Abstract

The work which forms the subject of the present essay was carried out in the Zoological Laboratories of McGill University, during parts of the summer vacations of the years 1903-04. The subject for investigation and the material were given me by Professor MacBride, who suggested that a comparison be made with the developement of Asterina gibbosa to see how far it might bear out his own work on Asterid development.
