Hemitaeniochromis Hemitaeniochromis Hemitaeniochromis is a small genus of cichlid fishes endemic to Lake Malawi in east Africa. The genus is distinguished from other genera of Lake Malawi Haplochromini by details of its melanic color pattern and by its dentition. The color pattern includes (1) a midlateral horizontal stripe starting at least an eye length behind the operculum, this stripe broken into separate spots at least on its front half, more nearly continuous on its rear half, extending to the end of the caudal peduncle; (2) a second (supralateral) stripe above the midlateral one that is only on the front part of
Caudal cell mass The cavities formed from the initial and secondary neuralation combine to form one uninterrupted cavity. There is still specualtion on the formation of the caudall cell mass in humans with arguments being made for it arising from many cavities or the continuing growth of the neurocele from the initial neuralation. The caudal cell mass will ultimately differentiate and form into many sacral structures such various nerve endings and the conus medullaris. The caudal cell mass plays a role in many diseases and abnomalities related to the spinal cord. One group of abnormalities it plays a role in are occult spinal
