The egg of Aspiculuris tetraptera is an ellipsoid measuring 93 × 40 µm. The shell consists of 5 layers: the external uterine layer, internal uterine layer, vitelline layer, chitinous layer and the lipid layer. This nomenclature is based upon the formation and histochemistry of the shell layers. The internal uterine layer contains a system of interconnecting spaces, partly filled by uterine secretion, which open to the exterior of the egg via breaks in the external uterine layer. The surface of the egg is covered by a system of interconnecting grooves. Freeze-etching reveals that the internal uterine layer is open to the exterior via pores, which open into the grooves. Rod-shaped particles are also revealed in the external uterine layer. The operculum of the egg consists of a modification of the uterine and chitinous layers of the shell.


In furtherance of the views put forward regarding the nutrition of the early embryo by the author in a preliminary note read before the Royal Society in February, 1905, the following series of experiments was carried out. The changes that take place between the growing embryo and the maternal secretion are in the mammalia, not easy to study, on account of the difficulties to be encountered, such as the minute size of the embryo, and the small amount of uterine secretion available. In birds, on the order hand, the uterine secretion, viz., the white of the egg, is abundant. The growing embryo can be examined easily at any stage which may be desired, and since all the changes which take place do so within the limits of the shell, the products of these changes are capable of accurate analysis.
