title: [Demonstration of the dorsal character of the body wall of the aneurogenic regenerate of Nereis pelagica L. (Annelida, Polychaeta)].
abstract: In Nereis pelagica, graft of dorsal or ventral parts of a regenerate edified in the absence of nerve cord (=aneurogenic) on the ventral or dorsal face of a normal host demonstrates a completely dorsal nature of the body wall in these special regenerates. The results indicate that the nerve cord is involved in setting up regenerate dorso-ventral polarity by fixing differentiation of the ventral characters in the area located near by; without it , only the dorsal character is expressed.
