Abstract
An ectodermal nerve net and some extra-ectodermal, axon-like elements have been demonstrated in the ciliated bands of Psammechinus miliaris larvae. It is proposed that these extraectodermal structures, together with the microvillous epithelial cells and the ectodermal nerves, participate in the co-ordination of responses on sensory stimulation from the outside of the larvae.
