[42] To these have here been added two Bohemian species P. bohemicus and P. spinosus omitted above at page 64.
We have thus 136 species of 39 genera in which hypostomic maculæ have been found and only 36 species, in which it has been possible to study the structure of the maculæ through sections.
Common for a great number of maculæ in various groups, whether they show any organic structure or not, is the excessive thinness of their shell in comparison with that of the surrounding hypostoma. This is also in accordance with the tenuity of the cephalic eyes in relation to the test of the cheeks.
The structure which characterizes the macula as a visual organ, although often so rudimentary, is not in all instances spread through the whole substance of the macula. This structure has in several species been restricted to a narrow circumference of the body of the macula, to its interior apex as in Bronteus and Proetus. Only in the Asaphidæ, in Illænus and Lichas the entire macula shows this structure. Perhaps, to judge by certain indications in Bronteus, once in a larval or preceding stage of evolution the whole surface of the macula was also in that genus covered with lenses, which have been reduced.
The different groups in which the examined genera may be divided are the following seven, showing the remarkably great diversity of these organs. There is even in the same genus so great a variability that species with structure in the macula occur along with those devoid of any structure or also, as in Lichas, with a different structure. It must, however, be remembered, that the species of such genera may not be coeval.
Group 1. In the sectioned macula there is no trace whatever of any structure. The test of the macula considerably thinner than that of the hypostoma. According to the affinities of the genera they may be subdivided as follows. a Bumastus, Dysplanus. b Nileus, Symphysurus, ? Ogygia. c Calymmene, Homalonotus. d Chirurus pro parte.
Group 2. The whole macula is of a spongious or irregularly polyedric structure, showing prisms in vertical sections. Its concordance with the structure of the deteriorated cephalic eyes or with the so called border zone is complete. If a supposition may be hazarded, I think that the spongious or reticulate structure in the maculæ is their real and original state, a lower stage of development of the visual organs, out of which the prisms in the cephalic eyes have been formed, and that the prismatic lenses in their decay, as seen in the Asaphidæ, reveal to us their original state and structure, and thus, as it were, return to the primary stage in the maculæ.
Asaphus, Isotelus, Megalaspis, Ptychopyge, Niobe, ? Megalaspides, ? Barrandia.
Illænus, Lichas, Trochurus, ? Platymetopus.
Encrinurus also probably belongs to this group.
Group 3. Maculæ with well developed globular lenses on the interior third of the macula. The blank part of the macula without any structure. In one instance (Chirurus spinulosus) the whole macula covered with lenses.
Bronteus, Chirurus spinulosus.
Group 4. The macula form sunk pits with smooth bottom. Structure unknown. In a few species there seems to be no less than four maculæ in two pair above each other.
Dalmanites.
Group 6. The elongate straight maculæ carrying on their innermost point from three to five diminutive, segregate ocelli situated on a clear, white patch. Proetus.
As yet these ocelli have not been observed on the related genera Cyphaspis, Phaëtonides, Phillipsia and Griffithides, but they may be preliminarily ranked here in consequence of their close conformity.
Group 7. The maculæ have in this group been reduced to a pair of tiny ocelli situated high up on the hypostoma, near its anterior margin.
Phacops, Acaste.
The position of the hypostomic eyes on the ventral surface of the trilobites is not quite so abnormous, nor so isolated a feature amongst the crustaceans as might at first be supposed. Amongst the recent crustacea there is probably none, which as to the conformation of its labrum or hypostoma resembles the trilobites so closely as the species of the genus Apus, however different they may else be in all other respects. We have studied chiefly the hypostoma of Apus cancriformis. In its shape as seen from the outside and as to its outlines it reminds strongly of the trilobite hypostoma. It is nearly square (pl. VI figs. 46, 47) with rounded corners. The anterior margin is arched and in the middle it has a broad tonguelike prolongation. On the sides of the anterior margin there are two short, sharply pointed wings. The lateral margins are thick, almost as doubled, and bent forward so that a groove is formed alongside them and the large, evenly vaulted median surface of the hypostoma. These grooves are continued in a short groove parallel with the posterior margin. From this margin a narrow oblique surface is slanting backwards, as it were, doubling that margin. On its surface there are two small, resplendent, white or clear spots, almost of the shape of a crescent, though more irregular when seen in higher enlargement (pl. VI fig. 49). They are translucent as to be visible on the interior side of the hypostoma. In Apus glacialis there are also similar spots in the same position, but they form short narrow, straight stripes, parallel with the border of the posterior margin. I have no opinion as to the nature or function of these white spots. I do not think that they at all are homologous with the macula; of the trilobites. On the other hand we see a little higher up on the exterior side of the hypostoma two faintly elevated elliptic tubercles which as to their position and shape highly remind of the maculæ of the trilobites. They are hollow on the inside and we have not been able to find any peculiar structure in them. That they have any visual function is precluded through the circumstance that the whole exterior surface is densely covered with microscopic bristles (pl. VI fig. 49) which are especially remarkable along the posterior margin.
In the class of the Cirrhipedia a sufficient number of facts is known to ascertain us of the presence of eye spots on the hypostomas of the larva. The researches of Spence Bate[43] show in the larva of Balanus balanoides, on the hypostoma or labrum, which he calls proboscis, an eye, a little from the posterior margin of the labrum. It seems during the various moults of the animal to have changed its place, being in the two first moults situated near the anterior margin of the hypostoma. In Clitia Strömi it lies at the anterior part of the labrum (figs. 9, 10). Spence Bate does not accept the opinion of their nature as eyes, but the following authors as Darwin and Claparède agree in considering these spots as eyes. Darwin[44] describes two such eyes in Lepas australis and, if I catch his meaning rightly, one on each side of the labrum. Claparède has given a figure of the larva of Lepas anatifera[45] in the hypostoma of which (by him called »Rüssell», proboscis) a single eye is seen, having at the sides two round problematic organs, that he at first considered as auditory cells, but later as eyes. Hesse[46] has also in a species of Scalpellum seen several coloured spots on the inferior surface of the carapace, below the antennæ and he expressly says that they are eyes and a special pair of supplemental eyes that are becoming functional after the first moult.

These sternal eyes in the larva are previous to the eyes in the dorsal side of the later stages and whenever such are discovered in other groups of adult animals as the trilobites they must of course be considered as remnants from the larval stage. As a rule, in several tribes of the crustacea it has been observed that the eyes originate on the ventral or sternal side of the body and in the advancement of growth move to the superior side. So according to Packard and others the embryo of Limulus has originally the median eyes on the ventral side. In the same way the cephalic eyes of Dalmanites move, as Barrande has shown, from the ventral side to their permanent place on the superior side of the head shield. But while in the Cirrhipedia the larval or hypostomic eyes are lost in the adult they remain on the hypostoma of a great number of the adult trilobites and have probably left their mark behind in A pus. No wonder then that we find these maculæ developed as precursors of the hypostomic eyes in a number of the oldest and in other respects blind trilobites as the Olenellidæ and Paradoxidæ to which they may have been of some use as a sort of visual organs, though probably very imperfect.
We find the maculæ of the trilobites present from the oldest Cambrian times and we find also in them a progressive evolution, in some to a high degree, lenses and facets, perfectly identical with those of the eyes on the head shield, converting them into true eyes. It was in the Lower Silurian times, in the Lower grey Orthoceratite limestone of Sweden, that Illænus Esmarki appeared provided with actual prismatic lenses on its maculæ and probably also Lichas. Still higher at the top of the Lower Silurians, in the Leptæna limestone of Dalecarlia the genus Bronteus has appeared with those highly developed hypostomic eyes.
But there are, no doubt, still more facts to adduce for filling up extant lacunæ in the knowledge of these matters. The material now at hand has, however, not been sufficient for doing this. At present I must leave this interesting field of investigation and be contented if I have succeeded in showing where rich harvests await every one who will make a search for them.
