_Eyes._--These present no difference, except in size, throughout the class; and have been sufficiently described in my former volume. The true basal segments of the antennæ (incorrectly designated formerly as sternal plates or segments) are separated from each other by a deep fold; and are separated from the edges of the carapace on each side by a crest and slight fold (Pl. 30, fig. 7, _c_; and 4); these folds and crests die out posteriorly, and disappear. The hinder, rounded margins of the basal segments are inflected inwards, and their corners are produced far up into the body, thus forming the curious UU-like apodemes. These apodemes exist throughout the whole class; and the outer arms always carry the great compound eyes. I noticed, in _Lepas pectinata_, that the two middle arms are proportionably longer than in _L. australis_. Owing to the presence of these apodemes, and to certain coloured marks on the adjoining corium, the eyes, though enclosed fairly within the carapace, yet deceptively appear pedunculated, so that even J. Vaughan Thompson was thus deceived. I have already described the several muscles attached to these apodemes, and the constant vibratory movement of the eyes. Whilst the pupa remains a freely swimming animal, the eyes are included, not only within the shell or carapace, but (as would naturally happen) within the corium or true skin lining the carapace; but after the pupa has become attached, preparatory to its final metamorphosis (in the state represented at Pl. 30, fig. 2.), not only are the muscles, as before remarked, which are attached to the apodemes, absorbed, but so is the corium investing the apodemes and the immediately adjoining parts of the carapace. Hence it comes that the new corium of the young Cirripede within, is formed in a deep transverse fold across the whole lower half of the animal, and the apodemes with the eyes are thus, as it were, rejected from within the corium, though still remaining within the carapace. Consequently in this final stage, the eyes and apodemes are very conspicuous from the outside, being seen only through the transparent carapace. I presume that the eyes at this period have become functionless, with the optic nerve divided and absorbed. The eyes, apodemes, and carapace soon afterwards are all moulted together.
