The walls of the vase are perforated with numerous regularlyarranged openings or pores (p.) which open directly into thehollow interior of the sponge—called the paragastric or atrialcavity (atr.). The walls are made up of three layers: 1st, theectoderm, or outer layer; 2d, the endoderm, or inner layer;3d, the mesoderm, or middle layer. The ectoderm (ect.) is a thin layer of cells, generally arrangedin mosaic form and known as pavement cells. In the case ofthis species, however, the walls of the cells have disappearedand left the protoplasmic cell-contents continuous over theentire surface of the animal. Such a layer is called a syncytium.The endoderm (end.) lines the paragastric cavity and is madeup of a layer of peculiar and characteristic cells called collaredcells, or choanocytes (cho.),found nowhere else among many-celledanimals. They are so called from a collar-like rim around theouter edge of the cell out of which extends a long whip-like
