The effect of nerve cord removal on the inductive formation of new pharynges in freshwater planarian, Dugesia japonica japonica, was studied. The head piece was previously transplanted in the postpharyngeal region of the animals. Both left and right nerve cords of the host animals were extirpated in the region anterior to the given head piece at varying periods of time after transplantation. New pharynges were found to be induced in these animals and their number and developmental stages were examined for respective specimens. Plural induced pharynges were found only in specimens in which the nerve cords were extirpated on the second day after trans plantation of the head piece. Some of these pharynges showed the incomplete rudimentary structure and their polarity was distorted. These results show that the nerve cords have inhibitory action for the apparition of the pharynx and that they dominate the pharyngeal polarity, probably through deter mining the body polarity. In addition, it was suggested that the nerve cords might secrete a substance which would be utilized as nutrient and promote the growth of the developing pharynx.
