Stockings were usually black for daytime wear and white or colored for evening. They were held up by garters. By the end of the century, the garters were attached to the corset. Cotton drawers went over the stockings.
Cephalopods include squid, octopus, cuttlefish, nautilus, spirula, and the extinct ammonites and belemnites. Cephalopods first appear in the fossil record nearly 500 million ago during the Ordovician Period. They are all mollusks, members of the same Phylum Mollusca as oysters, conches, and the common garden snail.
Among the cephalopods there are the largest invertebrates on earth. Their nervous system is developed to a much higher degree than that of other molluscs. The complex behaviour of cephalopods makes them comparable to the vertebrates rather than to other invertebrates. Schematic body plan of a cuttlefish (Sepia).
