| The lens vesicle becomes completely closed and detached
from the ectoderm. The peripheral margins of the eye become well
defined. The forelimbs are seen to be divided into two regions,
the proximal part consisting of the future limb-girdle and arm and
the more peripheral part which forms a circular or paddle-shaped
handplate (anterior footplate). The medial and lateral margins of
the otic pit are coming together reducing the entrance to a narrow
slit and the auditory hillocks become visible.
Absent: retinal pigmentation, signs of fingers. |
