Pharynx atlas
These pictures are a focal series through the terminal bulb of the
pharynx. The worm is lying on its right side, with anterior towards
the upper left, and ventral towards lower left. The first image is a
superficial cut through the very leftmost edge of the pharynx.
Subsequent images go consecutively deeper, until the last goes through
the very rightmost edge. The focal plans aren't equally spaced. They
were chosen so that all the nuclei in the terminal bulb would be
clearly visible in at least one.
