Abstract

This investigation is concerned with the neurosecretory activity in the cerebral ganglion of a rhabdocoel turbellarian:Mesostoma lingua (Abildg.). It was observed that the neurosecretory activity is primarily localized in the pear-shaped cells, situated near to the region where the external anterior cords arise from the dorsolateral tract of the cerebral ganglion. The neurosecretory material appears to be transported — via the ventral cords — to the transverse cord behind the pharynx, where it is stored. Then, probably, it flows down into the parenchyma.
