[Neurosecretory cells of the globuli I and the protocephalic neurosecretory pathway of the myriapods, diplodods. Preliminary observations on the Polydesmida, Platyrrhacidae, the Nematophora Lysiopetalidae, the Spirostreptida and the Spirobolida].

The Diplopods studied by the author and more particularly Platyrrhacidae, Lysiopetalidae, Spirostreptida and Spirobolida, show neurosecretory cells near the globuli I. The whole of his observations induces the author to admit a structural plan common to all the Diplopods: neurosecretory cells of globuli I--(NOG) nerve--neurohemal organ (Gabe's organ). Moreover he makes an attempt to compare his observations with those concerning another group of Myriapods: the Chilopods.
