Abstract Spermatogenesis and especially oogenesis have been investigated in decerebrate and intact specimens ofAnaitides mucosa. The results indicate, in contrast to similar experiments on the related speciesEulalia viridis, that decerebration causes an accelerated, but nevertheless qualitative normal growth of coelomic oocytes. The implantation of whole prostomia into the coelom of decerebrate females has no counteractive effects. It is likely that the prostomium exerts its influence via the ventral nerve cord.
