Lectures on the comparative anatomy and physiology of the invertebrate animals : delivered at the Royal College of Surgeons . he Cephalopods possess the power of emitting a luminoussecretion. | All of them are nocturnal and social animals, and arereadily attracted by bright metallic substances. Prior to the dissection of the Pearly Nautilus, the Cephalopodswere regarded as having three distinct hearts; but two of these, whichare appropriated to the branchial circulation, are peculiar to the higherorder, and are perhapsthe main-spring of theirsuperior muscular ener-gies. In the Dibranchiatesthe venous blood returnsfrom each arm along itslateral and posterior partsby two veins, whichseverally unite at thebase of the arm with theopposite vein of the ad-joining arm, the wholebeing ultimately con-veyed to an irregularcircular sinus, which sur-rounds the pharynx, andis continued between theanterior cava {fig. 228, a).two semilunar valves at its commencement; in Sepia witli a singlevalve.
