 note = {In these two species, as in other teleostean fishes, the crystalline lens shows a global shape
and is covered on its outer surface with a homogeneous capsule, that is a transparent thin membrane. Under the latter, hexagonal cells are distributed uniformly except a limited area of the
posterior pole, forming a layer of cuboidal epithelium. At the margin of this polar area, lens
fibers are thought to be produced by transformation of the flattened epithelial cells, which become
elongated and compose nearly all of the peripheral layers of the lens. This differentiation
occurrs markedly at the young, then, decreases according to the aging. Each of columnar lens
fibers connects its both ends to the linear sutures on respective poles, that is the anterior or the
posterior, arranging itself in a meridional row. The latter shows each other an orthogonal slip
of phase to an outward appearance. Central part of the lens possesses a colloidal substance at the
hatched larva, however the substance becomes to have a hyaloid character and gradually a solid
core has been formed accroding to the aging.},
