I, the heteronervid or heterosyllid stage; A, non-sexual anterior part; B posterior sexual part. II, the posterior sexual part is separating from the anterior non-sexual (Syllis hyalina). III, the same in Autolytus, the hinder zooid develops a head before separation. IV and V, budding in Autolytus, Myrianida, etc., in which the zone of fission, after producing the head of the sexual worm, persists (Z) and gives rise to a chain of sexual zooids (C,D) Altered from Benham.' |
