These cells give rise in a later stage (not worked out in Astacus) to the cuticular corneal lenses.
After removal from its capsular covering, the vesicle consists of a thick laminated membrane, forming the so-called cuticular layer, and a central granular mass, which subsequently becomes enveloped by a delicate granular membrane.
Its margins become more and more clearly defined, until the cavity is by and by seen to be lined with a distinct cuticular membrane.
For this and other reasons it has been called the cuticular layer, but the endocyst is the essential vital part of the animal, representing a huge compound caudal vesicle.

Within the cuticular membrane resulting from the first ecdysis the anterior five pairs of limbs spring out in the usual fashion.
While the above changes take place in the appendages the embryo undergoes an ecdysis, which gives rise to a cuticular membrane within the single egg membrane (chorion, Metschnikoff).
The lens is formed in the interior of the vesicle, probably as a cuticular deposit, which increases by the addition of concentric layers.
In Polyxenus a cuticular membrane is present as in Strongylosoma, but it is not provided with a tooth-like process.

The succeeding appendages become eventually imperfectly five-jointed; two claws are formed as cuticular investments of papillae in pockets of the skin at the ends of their terminal joints.
When the larva has attained this stage the original egg-shell is split into two valves and eventually cast off, but the embryo remains enclosed within the cuticular membrane shed at the first ecdysis.
Professor Schulze has informed me that these spicula are developed in mesoblast cells; while the horny fibres of the sponge are developed as cuticular products of special mesoblast cells (spongioblasts).
Its development at this point appears to be due to the fact that the follicle is here incomplete; so that the cuticular membrane deposited by it is also incomplete.
