Abstract

ABSTRACT A description has been given of the differentiation and metamorphosis of the optic glomeruli. The giant ganglion cells of the larval brain degenerate at the end of the third instar after differentiation to the imaginal brain primordia is completed. The outer eye glomerulus was found to differentiate from the brain and not from the optic bud. The ‘fenestrated zone’ of the outer eye ganglion is an artefact, and develops from the histolytic products of the larval tissues in the head. The condition in the mutant eyeless is discussed.
