Theiler Stage 10 - Amnion

Gastrulation continues throughout all sub-divisions of this stage and:

MS: Tissue at the posterior end of the primitive streak bulges into the proamniotic cavity and forms the posterior amniotic fold.  

LSOB: In the mesoderm of the posterior amniotic fold small cavities coalesce to form a single cavity, the exocoelom.

LSEB: The allantoic bud first appears, gastrulation continues and the node becomes visible.
