Abstract
The compound eye of the lobster H. vulgaris has a single lobe; its ommatidia are uniform except in length. Each ommatidium consists of a corneal facet, two corneagenous cells, four cone cells, a four-part crystalline cone, an elongate cone stalk, seven retinular cells and a four-part rhabdom. Growth between the zoaeal and adult stages is primarily a lengthening of the cone stalk.
